A Resolution Approving the Purchase of Two Front Mount Mowers & Decks for Street Dept. - Maintenance
Summary
Street Department - Maintenance (3012) requests to purchase two 2021 John Deere 1575 Front Mount Mowers and two Rear-Discharge 72 inch Decks from Deere & Company through SunSouth LLC. for $36,919.96 each under Sourcewell Grounds Maintenance Contract #062117-DAC (PG NB CG 70). The total cost for both is $73,839.92, however the FY21 budget for these purchases is $72,000 under Account #100-3012-5100. These are necessary additions to the Street Department - Maintenance fleet to better serve the citizens as we maintain the right-of-ways and ditches.
Also in FY21 the Street Dept - Maintenance (3012) budgeted $95,000 under Account# 100-3012-5100 for the purchase of a Big Tractor & 15' Bush hog. When we purchased them, the cost was $9,028.76 less than the budgeted amount.
Therefore, The Street Dept. requests that $1,839.92 of the saved amount on the purchase of the big tractor & 15' bush hog be combined with the originally budgeted amount of $72,000 for the two front mount mowers/decks for a total combined amount of $73,839.92.
