Sherman County commissioners approve routine contracts, equipment bids and permits
Summary
The Sherman County Board of Commissioners approved routine agenda items, signed an audit engagement with Adams Brown, accepted bids for landfill cameras and a tractor blade, continued an HVAC maintenance contract and granted an emergency vehicle permit for Rick Strammel.
The Sherman County Board of Commissioners approved a series of routine actions at their meeting, including vendor contracts, equipment purchases and an emergency vehicle permit.
Commissioner (Speaker 2) moved to approve the day's agenda ‘‘We approve the agenda for today,’’ and the board adopted it by voice vote. The board then approved previous meeting minutes after confirming the correct meeting date.
The commissioners approved an engagement letter with Adams Brown for county audits after a brief question about price; Commissioner (Speaker 1) said the contract was "been moved and seconded," and the board voted to authorize the agreement. The board also voted to pay outstanding bills and approved tax-roll corrections described in the meeting as two personal-property adjustments and one real-estate correction.
On procurement, the board accepted a bid for cameras at the landfill for $6,479.59 and approved a $2,750 purchase from Yost Farm Supply for a rear tractor blade at the fairgrounds to support snow removal. Commissioner (Speaker 3) moved to accept the camera bid and the motion passed by voice vote. The board also approved continuing a maintenance contract with Glassman's for the courthouse HVAC for a stated annual amount of $4,850.
The board granted an emergency vehicle permit for Rick Strammel after a motion by Commissioner (Speaker 2) and a second; the permit was approved by voice vote.
Two executive sessions were held during the meeting: one for trade-secret discussion (10 minutes) that listed Matt and Ashley among attendees, and a second 15-minute session for non-elected personnel that also included Ashley and Brett. No formal outcomes from those executive sessions were announced when the board returned to open session.
The meeting adjourned, and commissioners moved into a work session.
