Commission extends residential waste contract, awards timber sale and approves several vendor agreements

Calhoun County commissioners on May 23 approved a set of procurement and vendor actions affecting county services and facilities.

County Administrator Mark Tyner presented a resolution to extend the county's residential waste services agreement with Arrow Disposal Service through July 1, 2027; Commissioner Henderson moved to adopt, Commissioner Wilson seconded, and the vote was unanimous. No contract terms beyond the extension date were read into the meeting record.

The commission awarded the Landfill Timber Sale to Cherokee Timber Company at a bid of $350 per acre and authorized acquisition of an additional camera for the Animal Control building through an agreement with Insight Public Sector. Commissioners also authorized a one‑year IT maintenance agreement with InfoSeal Services and approved acquiring credit card equipment and paying a maintenance fee under an agreement with Dynamic Merchant Processing. All items were moved, seconded and carried by unanimous voice vote.

Additional procurement‑adjacent actions included a bank authorization designating Melissia Wood as an authorized county check signatory and a small reallocation to the Justice Technology Fund. Grant application resolutions through Coosa Valley RC&D were approved for up to $15,000 each for playground equipment at Webster's Chapel and improvements at Camp McClellan.

Meeting records show unanimous approvals for these procurement and grant items; specific contract terms and vendor schedules were not detailed in the public minutes.
