The county would need to publish notice of the special <br /> purchase stating the items to be considered and inviting informal quotes. To approve this it <br /> would take a two thirds vote of the entire board to approve. Casey stated that if they agree to <br /> sell it for the $40,000.00 it will not be final until he does an inspection to make sure it is <br /> operational. It is in Duluth, Minnesota and they have agreed to meet part way at a dealership so <br /> Casey can inspect it. <br /> Bredthauer questioned if he would physically see the truck, because if it is from Minnesota it <br /> could have rust.
