Board approves purchase of used Roadhog milling machine for $65,000 with SPLOST funds
Summary
Public Works Director Darold Wiggins presented a used RH48200 Roadhog milling machine with about 100 hours for sale at $65,000; the board unanimously approved the purchase to be paid with SPLOST funds.
Public Works Director Darold Wiggins told the board March 24 he had been renting a milling machine and could buy the unit he had been using — a RH48200 Roadhog with about 100 hours of use — for $65,000 rather than paying $130,000 for a new machine.
On a motion by Commissioner Gwen Caldwell, seconded by Commissioner Keri Denney, the board unanimously approved purchase of the used machine from Flint Equipment Company for $65,000 and directed that the purchase be paid with SPLOST funds.
The minutes do not list warranty details, financing terms or after‑purchase service; staff were authorized to complete the purchase.
