Cloud County discusses $89,000 wheel loader quote, a CDL training proposal and solid-waste billing changes
Summary
County highway staff reviewed a quoted $89,000 wheel loader purchase; Cloud County Community College will prepare a CDL program proposal and Solid Waste Director Mike Hake outlined billing changes to be included with RNR notices.
Rod Michaud, Cloud County Highway/Weed Administrator, and Casey Fraser of Foley Tractor discussed a quote for a 2023 Caterpillar 906-14 CCE wheel loader priced at $89,000 after trade of a 2007 Case 321 E3. The minutes record the discussion but do not show a final procurement decision; any purchase would follow county purchasing rules and subsequent Board action.
Larry McLemore and Brandon Galm of Cloud County Community College discussed the college’s commercial driver’s license (CDL) program and county needs. They said they will prepare a formal proposal describing how the college could provide CDL training services for the county.
Mike Hake, Solid Waste Director, briefed commissioners on upcoming changes to Solid Waste billing and said information about the change will be sent with RNR notices to taxpayers. The Board did not take a final vote on equipment purchase, program contracting or billing policy at the meeting; staff were directed to continue follow-up and return with formal proposals or recommended actions as needed.
