A Resolution Approving the Purchase of a Fire Skid for the Nature Parks Department

Summary
Request permission to purchase a fire skid for the Nature Parks Department. The request is in the FY25 budget for capital purchases (Account 100-5090-5100) for $6,000. The lowest quote for the equipment after shipping was from Forestry Suppliers, Inc. at $5756.10. This equipment is needed to assist with prescribed burning operations conducted by staff.
