Board approves purchase of mailbox system after debate over cost
Summary
The board approved a mailbox purchase after debating whether to buy keys and locks for $105 or a used mailbox system for $1,265; Vice Chairman Mike Gottlieb moved, Tim McDermott seconded and the motion passed (minutes do not record the tally).
Chairman Pollie Carter asked the board to approve buying keys and locks for mailboxes at a cost of $105. Secretary/Treasurer Judy Mangrum reported she had found a used mailbox system priced at $1,265 and explained why she had not ordered a new system earlier, saying water issues had been a higher priority.
Vice Chairman Mike Gottlieb moved to approve the purchase (minutes do not record the exact wording of the motion), Tim McDermott seconded, and the motion passed. The minutes do not record a roll-call vote or the tally. The board recorded the purchase decision under old business.
The minutes show members weighed priorities between immediate water needs and mailbox replacement before approving the mailbox purchase. No vendor contract or payment schedule was recorded in the minutes; steps for procurement or payment were not specified at this meeting.
