Summary
Chambers County Commissioners approved purchase of a Honda side-by-side for a county commissioner from East Side Powersports for $16,888 after staff said the selected vendor offered a nearly $3,000 lower quote than an alternate.
The Chambers County Commissioners Court approved purchase of a Honda side-by-side for a county commissioner from East Side Powersports in the amount of $16,888.
Staff advised the court the selected vehicle was the same make and size offered by another vendor but came in nearly $3,000 cheaper, resulting in savings for taxpayers. Commissioner Town moved to approve the purchase; Commissioner Hammond seconded the motion. On a voice vote the motion carried.
No roll-call vote or individual tallies were recorded in the public transcript.
The purchase was presented as a routine procurement intended to save county funds by selecting the lower bid; the court moved on to subsequent items after approving the motion.
