Brown County Courthouse
(KNZA)--Brown County is preparing for this summer's chip and seal road projects.
The Brown County Commission Monday accepted the low bid submitted by Vance Brothers, of Kansas City, Missouri, for the purchase of an estimated 500,000 gallons of RS-IHP road oil for $2.18 a gallon.
It was among three bids received and was less than what the county paid last year.
In other action, the Commission approved pay increases for four Road and Bridge Department employees.
The Commission voted to increase Caleb Clement's salary to $17.50 an hour, along with the salaries of Terri Siebenmorgen, Josh Linck and Rodney Allen to the deputy foreman pay of $18 an hour.
The Commission also approved an upgrade to the computer system at the county transfer station.
The more than $9,200 cost for the upgrade will come from the solid waste budget.
