Commission tables detention-center door repair after bid-policy concerns
Summary
Ward County received two bids to repair detention-center doors; the commission initially approved a $6,800 Midwest Glass bid but, after discussion about the county’s three-quote policy, voted to table approval until a third quote is obtained.
Facilities Director Brian Vangsness presented two bids to repair exterior doors at the detention center, noting the power operators were not functioning. A motion to approve the Midwest Glass bid for $6,800 was initially recorded, but commissioners discussed the county bid policy and the need for three informal quotes. Commissioner Olson moved to table the approval until a third quote could be obtained; the motion passed by roll call.
The minutes record the motion to table and cite the county’s bid policy concern as the reason for delaying final approval. No contract was awarded at the April 21 meeting pending additional procurement steps.
