Summary

The board approved routine procurement and administrative items: a low fuel bid to Volleyn Oil, a declaration of surplus equipment, payment of vouchers, and awarded the Clay Creek Ditch Cleanout to the low bidder.

At the Oct. 26 meeting the Clay County Board of Commissioners approved several routine administrative items, including awarding a low fuel bid, declaring surplus equipment, approving payment of vouchers and awarding a ditch-cleanout contract.

Procurement: Brent, a county staff member, reported a fuel quote and said Volleyn Oil submitted the low bid, “They gave me 2¢ cheaper than Jerry's.” A commissioner moved to accept the low bid; the motion passed on a voice vote.

Surplus equipment: Staff provided a list of equipment recommended for surplus. A commissioner moved to declare the items surplus and the board approved the declaration.

Clay Creek Ditch Cleanout: In Ditch Board proceedings the commissioners considered bids for the Clay Creek Ditch Cleanout. A staff speaker noted a large spread between the low and high bids when comparing line items; one exchange cited the total discrepancy as “that’s 41,000 versus 462,000” between the low and high bidder. The board approved the low bid from Freeman (bidder name stated in the record) and closed Ditch Board business.

Vouchers and bills: A motion to pay the county’s bills passed.

Each of the motions was recorded on the meeting record as having passed; the transcript does not include roll-call vote tallies by member for these routine items.
