Pittsburg County commissioners approve routine fiscal business, pay outside counsel and cancel two District 3 purchase orders
Summary
At their Feb. 2 meeting the Board of County Commissioners approved claims, transfers and blanket purchase orders; authorized a $1,350 payment to law firm Tisdal & O'Hara for litigation work; and rescinded/canceled two District 3 purchase orders tied to grader tires and a transmission repair.
The Board of County Commissioners of Pittsburg County approved routine fiscal transactions on Feb. 2, 2026, including claims, transfers and officers' monthly reports, and authorized a $1,350 payment to the law firm Tisdal & O'Hara for professional services in two ongoing litigations.
Chairman Ross Selman moved to approve payment to Tisdal & O'Hara for services on Cottage Park and Infoura, LLC matters in the amount of $1,350; Vice-Chairman Mike Haynes seconded, and the motion carried unanimously. The invoices and statements for the two matters are reflected in the firm's billing records included in the county packet.
In related action the board approved Resolution 26-186 to rescind Resolution 26-180 and cancel Purchase Order 5899 (District 3), which had been issued to Dowless Service Co. LLC for grader tires; minutes state the tires received were the incorrect size and vendor returned payment. The board also approved Resolution 26-187 to cancel Purchase Order 6076 (District 3), issued to Bruckner's Truck & Equipment for a transmission repair. Both motions passed unanimously after Selman read the resolutions and moved for approval.
Commissioners also approved an extensive list of blanket purchase orders across county departments — including the sheriff's office, jail, emergency management, building maintenance, the Expo, and multiple volunteer fire departments — that set vendor spending limits for routine supplies and services for the 2025–26 fiscal year.
The motions to approve claims, transfers, monthly reports and blanket purchase orders were made by Selman and seconded by Haynes and Rogers where noted; each vote was recorded as AYE for Selman, Haynes and Rogers.
The board will sign approved claims and follow standard payment-processing procedures; no additional policy directives or funding reallocations were made during the discussion.
