Court OKs $118,330 vehicle purchase for Panhandle Auto Burglary/Theft Unit
Summary
Commissioners authorized purchasing three replacement vehicles (one 2026 F-250 and two F-150s) for the Panhandle Auto Burglary/Theft Unit; grant funds will reimburse most of the $118,330 total, leaving a small county share.
Purchasing staff presented a request to authorize purchase of three fleet vehicles to replace aging units used by the Panhandle Auto Burglary/Theft Unit.

Commissioners asked about trade-in plans and funding; staff confirmed trades would be used and that grant funds cover all but the county’s $6,500 portion. The court moved, seconded and approved the purchase 5-0.
