Summary
County commissioners approved Road & Bridge’s recommendation to buy a Case tractor with mower and extended warranty for $233,911.62 after staff discussed comparable options, warranties and delivery timing.
Jefferson County commissioners approved the purchase of a Case tractor package for Road & Bridge after staff presented two comparable options and warranty differences.
Road & Bridge staff reviewed the Case and John Deere proposals, noting similar horsepower and differences in transmissions and delivery time. Commissioner Roger Clark moved to approve buying a Case IH Magnum 01/25 with the Diamond mower, tires and extended warranty for a total of $233,911.62; a commissioner seconded the motion and the board called the question by roll call.
Commissioners discussed warranty lengths and mower warranties and asked staff to put the purchase on county POs and complete the procurement paperwork. The board did not amend the price on the floor; the vote was recorded and the purchase will proceed under the approved terms.
