Highway department recommendations for vehicle and bed-package bids accepted
Summary
After reviewing bid openings, the highway department recommended awarding different portions of equipment purchases to multiple vendors; commissioners accepted the recommendations and approved the awards.
The highway department reported results from recent bid openings and recommended awarding parts of the package to multiple vendors.
The department recommended Wiers International for the tandem-axle chassis, Stoop Freightliner for the single-axle chassis at $108,100, W A Jones of Columbia City for the single-axle bed package at $106,009.00, and Clark Truck of Crawfordsville for the tandem upfit at $114,835. County staff noted a local-vendor preference factor for the tandem award despite a small price difference.
The chair moved to accept the highway department's recommendations and the commissioners voted to approve the bid acceptances.
The awards will proceed through county procurement procedures and the vendors will be notified per the department's recommendation.
