~ty of <br /> <br />River <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Mayor & City Council <br /> <br />Phil Hals, Street/Park Supt. <br /> <br />August 25, 1997 <br /> <br />Purchase of Snow Removal Equipment <br /> <br />In the 1998 budget, I had identified the need to purchase two 12' reversible <br />trip edge snowplows and three dump box inserts. The plows will replace two <br />old moldboard trip plows we are now using. The dump box inserts will allow <br />us to haul 14 to 16 cubic yards of snow instead of 6 cubic yards on our single <br />axle dump trucks. These boxes will shorten the time it takes to haul the <br />snow from the downtown area. <br /> <br />Little Falls Machine quoted two plows at $4,045 each plus taxes in the <br />amount of $527.65 for a total of $8,617.65. <br /> <br />Fair Mfg. Quoted three dump box inserts at $5,621 each plus taxes in the <br />amount of $1,096.09 and freight in the amount of $525 for a total of <br />$18,484.09. <br /> <br />The total amount is $27,101.74 and funds would be drawn from the state and <br />federal monies we received for winter storm relief in January 1997. <br /> <br />e:\shrdoc\council\snowplow.doc <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
