Sheriff accepts low bid for jail meals after public bid opening; procurement and contract criteria recorded
Sealed bids for 2017 jail meals were opened publicly; bidders included The Roadhouse, Hy‑Vee and The Old Lumber Company. The Roadhouse and Hy‑Vee each submitted competitive proposals with per‑meal pricing. Sheriff Andy Howe consulted with State's Attorney Alexis Tracy before returning a recommendation to accept The Roadhouse bid; the board recorded the award in minutes after legal review.

The procurement was conducted by public bid opening with results read into the minutes and later award authorized by motion and vote. The minutes record both the initial bid opening and the formal award after the sheriff and legal counsel reviewed responsiveness and contract terms.
