Nate Bowles, presenting for facilities, asked commissioners June 24 for permission to purchase a 2024 Transit 250 cargo van from Baumann Ford of Oregon for $40,169 and to accept a trade‑in of a 2017 E350 Morgan‑bodied vehicle.

Bowles said the new cargo van would better serve mobile technicians than the county's older delivery truck, which he described as "collecting more dust." Commissioner Gerken moved to approve the purchase; the clerk recorded yes votes from Commissioners Gerken, Lopez and Cabecki.

The motion authorizes county procurement of the specified vehicle and execution of the trade‑in; no additional funding contingencies or implementation timelines were recorded during the public remarks.
