Re: Purchasing Equipment Not on the 2025 Budget
The Grant County Assessor has requested to replace vehicle #0610 and #0674 with a
more off -road capable vehicle for the Assessors doing agricultural assessment. The
replacement vehicles would be Ford Bronco Big Bend four door SUV's. The total for two
vehicles is $128,413.31 and would be purchased through National Auto Fleet Group,
Sourcewell contract #091521-NAF. The two vehicles to be replaced have accrued
$93,816.87 combined toward replacement with the remaining funds of $34,569.44
coming from the Assessor's office. The anticipated time for delivery is 18-22 weeks.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Re: Procurement of Vehicles for the Assessor's Office
Dear Board of County Commissioners,
I was allowed a budget to replace two of my old vehicles; the Ford Ranger and the Ford Focus.
The vehicles we need are for the Agriculture Appraisers. These vehicles need clearance and
Four- wheel drive. The Escapes we currently have, do not fit the need and have endured some
damage while being used as the Ag vehicles.
John Spies has been working with me to find a working solution to save taxpayers dollars. We
currently have approximately $ 80,000 paid into the pool towards replacements through the
County pool. If we use that credit, we can upgrade to baseline Ford Broncos with enhanced
clearance for approximately $129,000.
I am requesting to use the budget money to pay the difference of approximately $49,000 and
then I will return the remaining approximately $55,000 back to the General Fund. This is the
most frugal option we could find, and I really appreciate the willingness of John Spies to work
with me. John will provide the final numbers to the Board of County Commissioners.
Sincerely,
Melissa McKnight
Grant County Assessor
