Pike County Quorum Court

Pike County Quorum Court met Monday night with the main line of discussion presenting around the status of the trash truck that was ordered last year. As of last week the dealer stated the truck should be delivered by Monday April the 19th but on Friday the 16th received word that due to a faulty part the shipment had been delayed. The part was to be ordered and replaced but with no specific timeline being given for as to when to expect shipment. Upon presenting this information Judge Mack voiced his disappointment in the ordeal and recommended consideration of a proposal to cancel the current order and substitute it with a different truck to help expedite the process. The new truck being larger and costing approx. $225k. This new truck was given a 90 day timeline for delivery. The vote passed 6/1 with Justice Pyler voting against.
