(KLZA)-- Richardson County Commissioners approved a bid for the purchase of outdoor warning siren upgrades during their June 6 meeting. 

Two bids were submitted. The difference was less than $175. Commissioners approved the low bid of $24,640 from Schmader Electric Construction Company.  

County Assessor Pam Vice presented a proposal to the Commissioners form Standard Appraisal Services of Central City, Nebraska for the reappraisal of the commercial properties in Richardson County.  The Board requested that Vice contact the company to review the quote submitted, and to reduce the number of properties to be appraised to include only the City of Humboldt and Falls City. 

Mark Novak, representing the Humboldt Shares group met with the Board to review an agreement for the County to provide $5-thousand funding to Humboldt Shares Inc. for the period of August 1, 2016 and July 31, 2017.  Commissioners will have the County Attorney review the agreement and will consider the request this week.
