Johnson County Commissioners Court voted unanimously Tuesday, April 8, to authorize a purchasing agent to advertise a request for bids for road materials — concrete.

The special-called meeting at 9 a.m. contained a single agenda item: action item A‑1, to allow advertising of the county's request for bids identified in the meeting as “RFB 20 20 5 Dash 4 0 1” for road materials (concrete). "I would just like to ask permission for us to go out for, to advertise RFB 2025-401 for road materials for concrete," said Mister Anderson, a county staff member.

The court's motion to approve the advertisement was moved by Commissioner Willie and seconded by Commissioner White. The presiding judge called for the vote; the clerk announced the item carried unanimously and the meeting was then adjourned.

County staff described the advertisement as a supplement to the existing road‑materials procurement and said the action was prompted because the county was approaching the $50,000 competitive‑bidding threshold. Meeting remarks noted that a bill being heard in committee that day would, if enacted, raise the threshold to $100,000.

The court did not provide the exact number of commissioners present by name during the vote; the minutes state that "all the members of the court are present today" and the motion was recorded as carried unanimously. No further discussion or amendments were recorded in the transcript.

The advertisement authorizes staff to solicit competitive bids for concrete road materials consistent with county procurement procedures; further procurement steps and any resulting contract awards were not discussed at the meeting and were not part of the action taken.
