Lincoln County approves purchase of two Dodge Durango patrol vehicles after bid review
Summary
The board accepted Janson's bid for two Dodge Durangos (Hemi) for $84,878 after trade-in, citing existing fleet compatibility and performance; the sheriff and captain recommended the purchase and the board approved by roll call.
Sheriff Jerome Kramer and Captain Danby presented results of a bid opening for two patrol vehicles and recommended the county purchase two Dodge Durangos with the Hemi engine package from Janson’s for $84,878 after trade-in. Presenters said Durangos met the specifications, were $3,000 less than the nearest bid, and matched performance expectations based on two Durangos already in county service.
Commissioners moved to accept the Janson’s bid; the motion was seconded and approved by roll call. Staff and the sheriff’s office will proceed with the purchase and trade two sedans as described.
The procurement was described as a standard vehicle acquisition for patrol operations; no state- or federal funding dependencies were mentioned. The county indicated the purchase will proceed under normal purchasing and fleet-asset processes.
