Summary

The board authorized ordering a new Caterpillar grader (listed price $427,131.08, trade‑in estimated ~$60,000), approved auctioning older equipment using Mike Granderas, and signed final plans to submit the 215th Street bridge project to DOT for construction later this year.

County roads staff requested authority to reserve a Caterpillar grader for FY26–27 at a listed price of $427,131.08; staff said the county expects a trade‑in of roughly $60,000 and has $365,000 budgeted for the purchase. Supervisors approved a motion to order the grader and asked staff to report back with a final actual price when trade‑in values and delivery timing are confirmed.

The board also authorized listing older equipment—trucks, graders and a skid steer (including a previously purchased Cat skid steer)—for auction and approved using Mike Granderas as the auctioneer after comparing commission structures.

Separately, staff presented final designs for the 215th Street bridge (just north of Norris) and the board approved signing the plans for DOT submission; construction was discussed as likely beginning no earlier than Nov. 15, pending contract schedules.
