Public Works recommends Option C for asphalt compactor; funds verification requested
Summary
Engineer Jonathan Campbell presented three quotes for an asphalt compactor and recommended 'Option C' for its longer warranty and tested performance; County Administrator will verify General Fund cash availability and the item will be added to new business at the next meeting.
Public Works Engineer Jonathan Campbell presented three vendor quotes for a new asphalt compactor during the June 22 work session and recommended what he identified as 'Option C' based on its longer warranty and field performance.
Campbell told commissioners that, under typical county use, the recommended machine would have a 15–20 year service life; he noted Option A as a secondary choice but said it lacked the extended warranty of Option C. The commission instructed the County Administrator to verify available General Fund cash to cover the purchase if approved and to place the item on the next meeting's business agenda for formal action.
No dollar amounts for the compactor were included in the work-session record. The commission did not vote on a purchase at the work session; staff will present final quotes, funding confirmation, and a recommendation at the next business meeting.
