Evart council approves 3-year IT contract with Black Rock for $77,500
Summary
The Evart City Council approved a three-year contract with Black Rock Technologies totaling $77,500, to be paid from the General Fund because the cost was not budgeted. The vote was unanimous on July 6, 2026.
The Evart City Council on July 6 approved a three-year contract with Black Rock Technologies for IT services, with the council recording a total contract price of $77,500 to be paid from the General Fund because the amount was not budgeted. "Motion by Carlson to approve a 3-year contract with Black Rock Technologies which includes a 10% discount and a total of $77,500 to be paid in full, with the amount not budgeted for coming from General Fund," the minutes state. The motion passed with all in favor.
Council member Ralph Carlson offered the motion and Council member Tina Young seconded it. City Manager Pepper Lockhart and Finance Director Jennie Sims were present during the vote; council did not record dissent. The minutes do not specify contract start or end dates or detailed scope beyond "IT services," and the administration indicated the purchase will be covered from General Fund balance rather than a line item in the current budget. The council did not request additional competitive-bid documentation in the minutes.
