Summary

Moore Engineering told the Mercer County Commission the Rural Catalyst Grant was not awarded so final approval of the $499,000 purchase agreement for the Roughrider RV property (Beulah Building) was held; the commission approved buying two 1,000-gallon propane tanks for that property for $9,295.00.

Moore Engineer Tom Weigel told the Mercer County Commission on Feb. 18 that the Rural Catalyst Grant has not been awarded, so commissioners postponed approval of the $499,000 purchase agreement for the Roughrider RV property (now referred to as the “Beulah Building”).

While the purchase agreement remains on hold pending grant decision, the commission approved the purchase of two new 1,000-gallon propane tanks from Rud Oil & Gas for $9,295.00 (motion: Jamee Folk; second: Casey Voigt). The motion passed by voice vote.

The minutes list a related vendor name in the bills approved later in the meeting (RUD PROPANE LLP, $2,014.48). That vendor-name difference is recorded here as a transcript discrepancy the county auditor or staff may clarify in financial records.

Next steps recorded in the meeting notes: the county will await the Rural Catalyst Grant decision before moving forward on payment approval for the Beulah Building purchase.
