Board approves $35,811 workstation privacy panels from W.B. Mason
Summary
Commissioners approved a $35,811.33 W.B. Mason proposal to deliver and install frosted glass panels at county workstations after staff located panels in storage and reduced the original $47,000 quote.
The Rockingham County Board approved a purchase order to W.B. Mason for frosted glass panels at workstations totaling $35,811.33, including delivery and installation. The county attorney had recommended authorization and the chair was authorized to sign necessary documents.
Staff reported the lower cost reflected use of panels already in county storage and cooperative sourcing: "So it's actually considerable decrease... they had worked with [staff], and they had located panels that we actually had in storage," a staff speaker said, explaining the drop from an initial quote near $47,000. Commissioners approved the motion by voice vote.
The board noted the expenditure had been discussed in prior budget sessions and identified as a priority for support staff. The purchase will proceed per the procurement recommendation and the county attorney’s review.
