Last summer we had an opportunity to demo all of these machines except the <br />Howard Price. Our evaluation favored the Jacobsen because it is easier to <br />maintain and more comfortable to operate. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />It is my recommendation that the City Council authorize the purchase of the <br />Jacobsen Model HR-5111 for $29,904 plus $1,943.76 sale tax without the <br />$2,500 trade in. I believe that the Excel 340 mower has more value as a <br />standby unit and should not be traded in. <br /> <br />Truck Bed <br /> <br />Recently the City Council authorized the purchase of a one ton cab chassis <br />truck for the Street/Park Department. The following are two quotes for the <br />truck bed, lift gate, and hitch for that truck including sales tax. <br /> <br />J-Craft Company, Kimball <br /> <br />$4,192.37 <br /> <br />Crysteel Manufacturing, Fridley <br /> <br />$4,315.38 <br /> <br />I would ask the City Council to approve the quotation of J-Craft Company for <br />$4,192.37. This truck and body were identified in the 1996 budget to be <br />funded from the equipment reserve. <br /> <br /> <br />
