County approves sealed bids for surplus secondary-roads equipment
Summary
Secondary Roads engineer Laura Sievers asked the board to sell several surplus pieces (two single-axle trucks, a Ford tractor, a brush chipper and an Oliver disc) via sealed bids instead of auction platforms; the board approved the sealed-bid process 4-0.
Laura Sievers, the county's secondary roads engineer, told the board she wants to sell multiple surplus items by sealed bid rather than through third-party auction platforms to avoid fees and because the county has local interest in several pieces.
Sievers listed the surplus: two single-axle trucks, a Ford tractor, a brush chipper, an Oliver disc and a garden disc, and described a sealed-bid schedule (open the bids publicly at 10:00 the Monday before the board meeting and present results at the next board meeting). She said reserves were set after market review and that the board may accept bids below reserve if they choose.
Dietrich moved to approve the sealed-bid disposition and Nelson seconded; the motion carried 4-0.
