Committee handles routine approvals: phone purchases, sealed bids and claims

Finance, Fees, and Salaries Committee, County of Hancock, Illinois · May 14, 2026

Summary

The committee approved purchasing a phone for the VSO by adding a line to an existing plan, opened sealed bids for a bicentennial banner, approved claims, and voted to recess and adjourn the meeting.

The committee recorded purchase of a phone for the Veteran Service Officer by adding the line to Dan Deshong's plan and discussed consolidating U.S. Cellular county lines onto a single plan to reduce costs. Jeff Dedey raised the phone-plan consolidation idea.

Sealed bids for a bicentennial banner were opened: Susan Cheney bid $15 and Scott Cheney bid $50; the bids were recorded for later action. Dennis Castlebury approved the purchase of an ambulance for $65,000 (recorded elsewhere) and claims were reviewed and approved by roll call.

Harry Douglas moved to recess; Lee Ann Lambert seconded and members voted to adjourn at 10:50 a.m. The minutes close with Wayne Bollin signing the record.
