Commissioners approve purchase of two rotary mowers for county maintenance
Summary
County approved buying two Schulte rotary mowers at roughly $36,008.50 each, with delivery expected later in the year and an old mower traded or repurposed to bridge the gap.
County staff presented a proposed purchase of two Schulte rotary mowers and commissioners authorized the purchase.
The presenter, identified as Jan, said each mower is priced at $36,008.50 for a total near $73,700 for the two units; delivery was described as August or September. Jan said the county plans to use one repaired older mower and expects to receive new equipment later in the summer.
A commissioner moved to accept the purchase as presented; the motion was seconded and recorded as authorized by the chair. The transcript records the motion and a verbal “Aye.”
Why it matters: The mowers are included in county equipment replacement planning and will be used by county road/maintenance crews. Staff noted timing for delivery and an interim plan using an older, repaired unit.
Next steps: Staff to complete the purchase authorization and proceed with ordering and scheduling delivery.
