Adair County approves $52,801.96 purchase to update sheriff radio equipment from E-911 fund
Summary
The commission approved a sole-source replacement of the sheriff's radio equipment for $52,801.96 to be funded from the county's 305 E-911 Emergency account after consultation with the State Auditor's Office.
Adair County commissioners voted to approve a sole-source purchase of new radio equipment for the sheriff’s office totaling $52,801.96, to be paid from the county’s 305 E-911 Emergency account. The change was approved after the county consulted the State Auditor’s Office, which advised that a budget amendment would be acceptable for the expense.
Fire Chief Jon Cook informed the commission that the City of Kirksville is upgrading radio equipment located on several local towers and that replacing the county equipment concurrently would be less expensive. Commissioner Shahan moved to approve the expense and Commissioner McHenry seconded the motion; all commissioners present voted in favor.
Minutes do not list vendor details beyond noting the equipment is sole-source; no implementation timeline was recorded in the minutes.
