Bids and purchases: The board approved low bids for fuel and diesel deliveries for county shops and school lots (Von Oil for school lots; Jerry’s Service for the Vermillion shop; Brubix and Jerry’s bids clarified for Wakonda and Vermillion shops). Commissioners asked staff to confirm packet labels to ensure each bid is matched to the correct shop.

The board accepted vouchers and tabled an employee handbook update for later review.
