Title

Street Dept. requests permission to purchase a John Deere 1575 Front Mount Mower and Deck

 

Summary

Darrell Russell, Public Works Superintendent, requests permission to purchase a new John Deere 1575 Terrain Cut Front Mount Mower with a 72 in Rear Discharge Mower Deck from Deere and Company for $33,594.69 under Contract # TX HGAC GR01-18 (PG 64).  It was budgeted for $36,000.00 under Acct# 100-3010-5100 (Old# 01-607-7010). This is an addition. Right-of-way maintenance time is upon us, and the new mower would greatly increase our ability to keep the City maintained since several miles of right-of-way, roadway, etc, have been added to what we already maintain.
