Ellsworth County approves $106,875 cold‑mix purchase for road maintenance
Summary
The Ellsworth County Commission approved a $106,875 purchase of cold‑mix road material from Weber Road Solutions after the county's Road & Bridge supervisor reported a 3% price increase; the board also held an executive session on non‑elected personnel wages.
The Board of Ellsworth County Commissioners on Feb. 2 approved purchase of cold‑mix road material from Weber Road Solutions for $106,875, the board said. Commissioner Shawn Thomas moved the purchase and Commissioner Dennis L. Rolfs seconded; the motion carried 3‑0.
Bret Dunlap, Road & Bridge Supervisor, told the board that Weber Road Solutions’ estimate for cold mix had risen about 3 percent and that his crew would add the necessary oil to the material. The board approved the purchase to keep planned road work on schedule.
Following the procurement vote, Chairman Gregory C. Bender moved the board into an executive session with Dunlap to discuss non‑elected personnel wages from 9:18 a.m. to 9:28 a.m.; Commissioner Thomas seconded and the motion passed 3‑0. The board returned to open session at 9:28 a.m. and stated that Dunlap will review employee wages.
The decision to proceed with the Weber Road Solutions purchase authorizes Road & Bridge to complete this cycle of maintenance work; the minutes do not list contract terms beyond the $106,875 purchase price or specify which roads will receive the material. The commissioners carried the motion unanimously.
