(b) The executive may order the county highway superintendent to do the work requested, if the county equipment is being used in the vicinity of the taxpayer's premises, and if the equipment is not needed for county business. The equipment may not be used for contractual work in any municipality or subdivision of the municipality.
(c) The county executive shall fix the charges for the work, which may not be less than the actual cost. The charge for hauling material may not be less than the actual cost per yard mile, or less than the private prevailing contract price in the community.
