Title

Approval to purchase dozer equipment for the Street Department

Body

SUMMARY:  The Street department manager is requesting permission to move the dozer forward to this budget year.  The manager has received a quote from Stowers for the dozer to be purchased on State contract in the amount of $177,160.00. 

Currently, the grader is in the budget to be purchased this budget year.  Quotes to replace the grader this year exceeds the amount budgeted and the trade-in value offered for the old grader was less than anticipated. 

Upon review of the capital budget, the Street department manager is asking for the dozer to be moved forward to this fiscal budget, and grader moved to a later fiscal year.  The dozer is used more often than the grader.

BUDGET ACCOUNT:  110-43100-940-001

Recommended Action

NECESSARY COUNCIL ACTION:  Approve the purchase of the dozer.
