The commissioners also awarded a bid to Beckman Ford for the Vian Fire Department’s purchase of a fire truck, approved an emergency disaster proclamation in Sequoyah County and approved a lease-purchase contract on a Kyocera copier from Wight Office Machines for the OSU Extension office.

The panel also approved state purchase contracts on a Cat 140 JY motor grader through the county road machinery and equipment revolving fund in Sequoyah County District 2, a Cat 140 JY motor grader through the county road machinery and equipment revolving fund in Sequoyah County District 3 and a 2022 Mack 10-wheel dump truck through the District 2 county road machinery and equipment revolving fund.
