The Fayette County Commission voted during a special-called emergency meeting on Friday, Jan. 28 to purchase three new dump trucks off of the state bid list. Councilman Brad Cox and Councilman Wesley Jacobs were absent from the meeting, with all of the other commissioners present. Commission Chairman Mike Freeman explained that the reason for the emergency meeting is the availability of the trucks from the state bid list. He said that only 100 total trucks are available, and many of those trucks have already been reserved by other agencies.
