Board approves invoices over $10,000 and accepts low bid for Carnes Creek turnout gear
Summary
Commissioners approved four invoices/quotes over $10,000 (Acree Oil Co.; Elite Glass LLC; Datasen Inc.; Carnes Creek turnout gear) and accepted the low bid from Bennett Fire Products for five new sets of turnout gear for Carnes Creek Volunteer Fire.
Unidentified Speaker 5, Unidentified Speaker, presented four invoices/quotes over $10,000: Acree Oil Company ($15,467.34) for gasoline; Elite Glass LLC ($27,641.82) for tempered windows (phase 3 at the government building); Datasen Incorporated ($32,840) for capital improvements at the administrative building; and three quotes for turnout gear for Carnes Creek Volunteer Fire (NAFCO $19,480; MECO $21,305; Bennett Fire Products $18,160). Staff recommended the low bidder, Bennett Fire Products, which the board approved as part of the invoices section.
Unidentified Speaker 4 moved to approve the invoices and bids; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. The transcript records the quoted amounts and the recommendation to favor the low bid from Bennett Fire Products because Carnes Creek Fire currently uses Bennett products.
Why it matters: Approvals commit budgeted capital and operational funds for building improvements, fuel, and protective equipment for volunteer firefighters. The board's action authorizes purchase and contract award consistent with the presented quotes.
