The Board of County Commissioners met Monday morning with 32 agenda items to consider. District 1 Commissioner Marven Goodman abstained from seven votes dealing with renewal of existing services with the county.
Guthrie News Page has the meeting on video and can be viewed at the conclusion of this article.
On the first of seven renewal items, Goodman asked, “is there a reason why this wasn’t bid?”
County Clerk Troy Cole replied with, “The money does not come anywhere near an issue. This is a renewal for the fiscal year.”
Three agenda items later concerning the renewal of an agreement with Tele-Coin to provide inmate telephone for the Sheriff’s Office, Goodman asked, “haven’t been bid?” District 2 County Commissioner Mike Pearson responded by saying, “my understanding is that it has been working out pretty good for both inmates and the jail.”
Two items later on a renewal agreement between Smart Technologies and the Sheriff’s Office, Goodman asked, “I guess this hasn’t been subject to any type of open bid?” Cole replied, “once the services are in place we are not require to bid them annually.”
“So, the answer is no?,” Goodman asked.
Cole said, “no.”
The seven items were approve with 2-0 votes coming from Pearson and District 3 County Commissioner Monty Piercy. Those items were as follows:
