Title

Street Dept. requests to use insurance proceeds to purchase a new Ventrac 4500Y with edger attachment.

 

Summary

The Street Department requests to use $12,016.00, in insurance settlement proceeds, received for a John Deere 1565 mower #07001 (VIN 0193), which was destroyed/totalled in a fire and funds budgeted to purchase a boom mower for $16,000.00, to purchase a new Ventrac 4500Y with edger attachment for $24,538.50 under the State of Alabama Commercial Contract# T225: commodity code 515-45-092701;line 57.  This item will relieve a 2000 model which is no longer reliable and probably will not make it through the rest of the season.  This purchase would shore up the Street Departments ability to maintain the edging of 95% of all sidewalks throughout the City.
