Martin County rejects garbage proposals, approves claims and appropriation transfers
Summary
The fiscal court voted to reject submitted garbage-hauler proposals to allow further negotiation of contract terms, approved the claims (bills) list and approved an appropriation-transfer list; motions carried on the transcript with aye votes.
The Martin County Fiscal Court rejected the garbage-hauler proposals it received at the end of last year to allow additional negotiations, and it also approved the claims list (payment of bills) and an appropriation-transfer list before adjourning.
The Judge told the court that while local haulers "do a very good job," the proposals submitted lacked several items the court wants to add or negotiate; the court moved and voted to reject the proposals as submitted so staff can renegotiate terms with local providers. The motion to reject the proposals was made, seconded and carried.
Separately, the court approved the claims list authorizing payment of county bills and also approved an appropriation-transfer list after a brief procedural check; both votes carried on the transcript with aye votes and no opposition recorded.
The court closed the special meeting with a motion to adjourn that carried. No public comments were taken because this was a special meeting.
