Supervisors express preference to buy county pickup trucks locally
Summary
County Engineer asked about truck purchasing preferences; the board indicated a preference for buying locally and asked staff to check availability with area dealers.
When County Engineer Tate Schmeling asked the board about vehicle purchasing preference, supervisors told staff they prefer to buy locally when possible. The board instructed staff to check whether local dealers or other nearby dealers could supply the pickup truck at comparable terms.
The comment was recorded as board guidance rather than a formal procurement contract restriction; staff will proceed with outreach to dealers to determine availability and pricing before a formal purchase action.
