Sherman County approves bid to install overhead-door opener at fairgrounds show barn
Summary
Commissioners approved a bid to install an overhead door opener on the north door of the show barn at the Sherman County Fairgrounds. The approval was by voice vote; the recorded meeting did not specify mover, seconder or an exact dollar figure in the minutes.
Sherman County commissioners on Monday approved a contractor bid to install an overhead door opener on the north door of the show barn at the Sherman County Fairgrounds.
The commissioning discussion identified the bidder by name in the meeting record (referred to as Northborn during the discussion) and commissioners concluded the bid should be accepted so the work can proceed. A commissioner moved to approve the bid; the motion was seconded and the commission approved it by voice vote.
Why it matters: The show barn at the fairgrounds is used for county events; replacing or adding an overhead-door opener is a routine capital-maintenance item the county said should be completed promptly so the facility remains serviceable for upcoming events.
Meeting details and vote The meeting transcript recorded a motion to approve the bid for installation of the north-door overhead opener and a voice vote of approval. The motion was moved and seconded; the clerk recorded the vote as "all in favor, say aye." No recorded roll-call tally or individual votes were read into the record.
Clarifying details - Project: overhead-door opener, north door, Show Barn at Sherman County Fairgrounds. - Bidder: identified in the meeting as Northborn (as read in the record). - Price: the meeting record contains a numeric value that was not clearly recorded in the transcript; the minutes did not provide a clearly legible amount during the verbal motion and vote. The county audit and formal minutes should be consulted for the exact contract amount and vendor paperwork.
Quotes "I make a motion. We approve that bid and get that done," a commissioner said during the motion to approve the bid.
Next steps County staff will proceed with completing the contract and scheduling installation. The formal contract and bid packet should be filed with county procurement records and included in the next set of minutes.
