(KAIR)--The Atchison County Commission has selected a bid from a Muscotah company to provide noxious weed chemicals for the county. Commission Chair Jeff Schuele says this is something they are required by statute to provide chemicals for certain noxious weeds. There are eight noxious weeds in the county that require these chemicals.
Schuele says that anyone in the county that needs to control noxious weeds will be able to purchase these chemicals through Atchison county at a discounted rate of 75-cents on the dollar.
Schuele says the bid of $78.077.76 from Spielman Fertilizer was not the lowest one submitted, but the company is within the county, and was only $300-$400 above the next lowest bid.
The Commission voted 3-0 to accept the bid.
