The Jackson County Commissioners held their regular meeting on Monday, June 25 at 10 a.m.

The commissioners approve the minutes from last meeting, June 18, with two minor corrections. There were no reports.

In Officers reports, Commissioner Clinton said he was informed that each department needs to have requisitioning and receiving officers approved annually.

County Clerk, Christi Hair stated that two more bids for the road and bridge materials, tires, and herbicides had been submitted on time but were overlooked when presented to the commissioners. Another bid was received but stated they were not bidding. It was sent in an envelope that did not state “bid”, nor did it have a bid number, according to Hair. Not realizing what it was, Hair opened the non-bid after the Commissioners Meeting.

There were no blanket purchase orders.

The Business Services Agreement from CableOne, for the purpose of providing Internet, was approved. It is $94.95 per month for one year.

Resolution 2012-24 was approved from CED #7 Energy District Authority for the purpose of constructing an Emulsion Asphalt Plant. Commissioner Cary Carrell said that the initial wording was too restrictive. The revised terminology in the agreement won’t prevent the counties from purchasing oil from other sources if necessary. This allowed the Jackson County Commissioners to approve the document showing support for the project.
