Freeburg rescinds earlier transformer purchase and accepts new supplier quote amid pricing inconsistency in minutes
Summary
Trustees rescinded a prior approval for padmounted transformers and approved a new quote from the Kentucky Association of Electric Cooperatives. The meeting minutes record conflicting quoted prices ($24,000 and $24,700) and an earlier approval that had listed $22,500.
The Village Board rescinded a motion previously approving a purchase from IPS for padmounted transformers and accepted a replacement quote from the Kentucky Association of Electric Cooperatives for 10–25 kVA single‑phase padmounted transformers. Trustee James (Mike) Blaies moved to rescind the July 6 approval for IPS pricing of $22,500; the motion was seconded by Trustee Tom Carpenter and carried by roll call.
Trustee Blaies then moved to accept the Kentucky Association of Electric Cooperatives quote and Trustee Carpenter seconded; the motion carried on roll call. The minutes contain inconsistent dollar figures: the Electric Committee discussion referenced a $24,000 quote, while the formal motion recorded acceptance of a $24,700 figure. The minutes do not include vendor contracts or delivery timelines.
