Commissioners authorize equipment trade with Joe Greer and approve $7,819 mower purchase for Road & Bridge
Summary
The board approved a planned equipment trade with Joe Greer (trade scheduled for June 9, 2026) and authorized buying a Hustler Fastrak mower from B3 Sales for $7,819 to be paid from the Courthouse Equipment Reserve Fund.
The Woodson County Board of Commissioners authorized Road & Bridge to complete an equipment trade with Joe Greer and approved the purchase of a new mower on May 19.
Road & Bridge representative Gary Ward told the board Harshman Construction will add a fuel surcharge effective May 26. Ward described a proposed trade to exchange the county's older CAT loader, CAT grader, and an unusable dump bed for a CASE loader with fewer than 1,000 hours, including forks and a bucket; county staff reviewed statutory requirements governing such a trade. Commissioner Justin Clark moved to allow the trade to proceed on June 9, 2026 at 10:00 a.m.; Commissioner Kevin Stuber seconded and the motion passed.
Ward also presented bids for a new lawn mower. Commissioner Kevin Stuber moved to purchase a Hustler Fastrak mower from B3 Sales for $7,819.00 to be paid from the Courthouse Equipment Reserve Fund for mowing county properties; Commissioner Jerry Sedlacek seconded and the motion passed. The minutes record approval but do not list individual vote tallies for these two motions.
The board instructed staff to proceed with the trade process and the mower procurement in accordance with statutory requirements and funding from the Courthouse Equipment Reserve Fund.
