The county commission approved a $7,541.95 purchase to finish the interior of the Wolf Point road shop during its special meeting on Jan. 12, 2026. Commissioner Gordon made the motion to buy the materials, and Doug seconded; the commission voted orally in favor.
Commissioners said the work — installing tin on interior walls — is intended to preserve existing insulation and prevent larger future expenses. Unidentified Speaker 2 noted the county had started buying materials and that this purchase would allow staff to complete the interior work. The motion carried without a recorded roll-call tally.
The item was introduced under administrative issues for the road department. Commissioners did not attach conditions or an implementation timeline in the discussion recorded in the transcript; staff follow-up and procurement steps were not specified.
The commission moved on to other agenda items after approving the purchase.
