Nelson County plans equipment bids and landfill lease advertising after highway update
Summary
Following a highway department update about a failed boiler, commissioners authorized advertisements for highway blades and a landfill quarter lease, and heard vendor information on moto graters from Butler Machinery.
Nelson County commissioners discussed highway operations and approved two procurement actions during their Jan. 3, 2023 meeting.
Seth Hamre provided an update for the Nelson County Highway Department, reporting that the boiler at the Michigan shop failed and will need replacement. Kevin Walford introduced himself and provided information on moto graters from Butler Machinery for the board's consideration.
Commissioner Aaron Mork moved and Commissioner Steve Forde seconded a motion to advertise for bids on highway department blades with a bid opening set for Tuesday, Feb. 21; the motion passed unanimously. Separately, Commissioner Cameron Swenson moved and Commissioner Aaron Mork seconded to advertise the landfill quarter lease for bids to be opened at the Feb. 7 commission meeting, with an option to increase at the opening; that motion also carried unanimously.
The transcript does not record specific budget allocations, vendor selections, or timelines for the boiler replacement; those items were not specified in the meeting minutes.
