Board approves two dump trucks purchase, reviews five-year road plan
Summary
After reviewing three quotes, the board approved replacing two dump trucks with the low bidder and reviewed the county's five-year road plan and bridge maintenance priorities ahead of DOT review and future budgeting.
The county reviewed three equipment quotes for two replacement dump trucks and approved the low bid from Don's Truck Centers to supply two chassis-and-equipment packages; staff said the county will likely keep the old vehicles for parts rather than trade them in. The quoted figure in the transcript appears as '484,56' (transcription artifact) and staff said final purchase pricing will be confirmed during FY27 procurement.
County Engineer Alex Davis also presented an updated five-year road plan sent to supervisors before the meeting and highlighted priority projects including reconstruction north of Jessup, deck overlays on bridges on V65 and other localized bridge maintenance, and a future roundabout at C-57 and W13 pending outside funding. Davis said the plan would be posted publicly after DOT review and board approval.
The board voted to approve the truck procurement motion and asked staff to proceed with FY27 scheduling for delivery in October–November. For the five-year plan, staff will send the plan to DOT for review and return with a formal resolution in a future meeting.
