Groundbreaking for the Clerk of Court BuildingThe Purchasing Department serves as the County's central procurement arm for the acquisition of goods and services, capital equipment, plans, studies, and construction. We strive to obtain the best value for the County's dollar while insuring that all procurement activities are conducted in a legal, ethical, and professional manner. Central to the County's Purchasing philosophy is the concept of "Price with Value," while maintaining an "even playing field" for all bidders.
