AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF ONE VEHICLE FOR THE SAUK COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT

[Text Box: Background: The Environmental Health Department (EH) allocated $25,000 from mandatory carry over fund monies to purchase a vehicle for the DATCP (Department of Agriculture Trade and Consumer Protection) program to assist in keeping mileage costs down. Bid requests were sent and four bid proposals were received. The State Contract holder, Ewald Automotive Group, sent all four bids with the specs listed in the fiscal note below. The 2018 Chevrolet Equinox AWD SE met the bid requirements and had the best fuel mileage out of the four bids received. The total, including license and delivery fee for the 2018 Chevrolet Equinox AWD SE is $22,009.00. The four/all wheel drive was needed to access inspections for the Environmental Health programs in extreme rural areas of the county during inclement weather (i.e. snow covered roads, wet, muddy, dirt roads and driveways etc.) and also large enough to transport multiple EH staff to mandatory trainings. ] [Text Box:
