Commission approves equipment purchases, payments and training contract
Summary
Commission approved routine payments and purchases including a $35,000 Lindstrom invoice, lawnmower and trailer purchases, several culvert and contractor payments, amended painting pay amount, and a Tyler Tech training contract for treasury work.
Ramsey County commissioners approved a series of routine expenditures and a software-services contract during the meeting.
Financial approvals included a $35,000 payment to cover completed ceiling and insulation work (Lindstrom invoice) and approval of county bills and treasurer checks. The commission approved purchase of a lawnmower for cemetery and shop use for $10,750 and authorized purchasing a flatbed trailer to haul culverts for $18,600. Jason (speaker 7) reported delivery of five 72-inch culverts for low-water crossings and the commission approved payment for DS Construction work related to those crossings (including a $5,000 payment and prior $17,500 recommendation for installation).
The county approved a $9,179.99 local-share payment to the North Dakota Department of Transportation tied to 2022 FEMA projects. Jason also requested amending an earlier painting authorization to increase the amount to $29,300 to paint both shoulder stripes and the center line; the commission moved and approved the amendment.
On IT and tax-processing, commissioners approved a Tyler Tech training quote to help the treasury/tax department avoid problems encountered in the prior tax cycle. The contract was discussed as up to 60 hours at $145 per hour but officials sought and confirmed that billing would be prorated to hours used; Candy (speaker 4) was directed to confirm contractual language and proceed.
All routine motions were moved, seconded and carried by voice or roll call as recorded in the meeting.
