McDonald County commissioners to seek bids to replace malfunctioning jail kitchen freezer
Summary
McDonald County commissioners met Dec. 1 with Sheriff Evenson and agreed to seek bids next month to replace a malfunctioning freezer in the county jail kitchen, contingent on available funding; no dollar amounts or formal vote were recorded.
Presiding Commissioner Bryan Hall, Eastern Commissioner Jamey Cope and Western Commissioner Rick Lett met Dec. 1 with Sheriff Evenson to discuss a malfunctioning freezer in the McDonald County jail kitchen, minutes show.
The commissioners agreed to seek bids for a replacement next month if funding is available, according to the minutes. The record does not list a dollar amount for the replacement, the names of bidders or a formal recorded vote on the decision.
County Clerk Jessica Cole is listed as present in the minutes, which say the commission conducted other general business for the remainder of the day and adjourned. The minutes note the commission will reconvene Dec. 3, 2025, and are signed by Jamey Cope, Bryan Hall and Rick Lett.
The action to solicit bids appears to be a direction recorded in the minutes rather than the outcome of a formal, recorded vote; the minutes do not specify a timeline for installation or a funding source beyond the note that replacement will occur "when funding allows."
