Rush County commissioners sign bridge and GIS contracts, ratify court services agreement and approve payroll
Summary
The board approved multiple routine items including payroll and signed contracts: a Strand Associates contract for Bridge 93 ($510,479) with a county share of $138,479, a GIS services contract (about $15,064) and ratification of a professional services contract for court services with corrected dates.
Rush County commissioners approved several routine financial and contracting items during the session, including payroll, a bridge contract and a GIS services agreement.
The board approved a balance payable of $766,298.16 and payroll totaling $268,708.27. Commissioners then discussed and approved a Strand Associates contract for "Bridge 93" totaling $510,479; the transcript states an outside funding partner (referred to as NDC) would contribute $372,000 and the county's share was presented as $138,479. "So I need your approval," one commissioner said before a motion to sign the contract was moved and seconded.
Separately, commissioners reviewed a GIS contract with Snyder for roughly $15,006.74 (the motion language in the record references $15,064) and discussed prorated discounts and an auto-renew clause; the board moved to accept a one-year amount to begin upgrades and database conversion. The treasurer's office also asked the board to ratify a professional services contract with Rush County Court Services (a contract with incorrect dates that the board agreed needed ratification); that item moved forward for ratification.
The board moved and seconded the various contracts and motions and the transcript records that the motions carried. The record does not include a roll-call tally for each item in the audio transcript provided.
