As per Resolution No. 27 dated August 10, 1983, the Highway Committee has acted and requested quotations for
the furnishing of a full size 4 door sedan for the Highway Department. Quotations were solicited from five area
automobile dealers. -
September 27, 1983
A copy of the quotation request is enclosed for your convenience, listing basic minimum requirements.
Copies of all quotations received are also enclosed for your convenience.
The Highway Committee has tabled taking any action on the acceptance of any of the quotations and would like
to refer the matter back to the County Board for the September 27 meeting. The reason being that no funds were
allocated or appropriated for the purchase of an automobile. The Committee feels that if a quotation is accepted
that the funds should be transferred to the Highway Department and purchased through the Highway Committee. with
the Highway Committee having authority over the vehicle as all other vehicles and equipment in the Highway Depart-
ment.
