The 2008 model <br />is nearing the end of its useful life. The machine was scheduled to be Yeplaced in 2021 but we delayed the <br />purchase until it showed further signs of failure. RecentlyT, we have had to replace the hydraulic motor for the <br />vertical auger and the main hydraulic pump that feeds the hydraulic fluid to the steering, vertical, and horizonal <br />motors. It is now scheduled to be replaced in 2023. <br />Due to demand and supply chain issues, the lead time is more than one year at this time. Zamboni is now <br />Yequesting a down payment of $25,000 with the order of the machine. Making the purchase now will ensuYe we <br />`vill have the machine b�T mid-2023. <br />Financial Impact <br />The Multipurpose FacilityT Fund t�TpicallyT would be used for facilit�T capital purchases. Due to lost revenue during <br />the past three seasons due to facilityT construction and the covid pandemic, the fund balance is well below the cost <br />of the machine. <br />Mission/Policy/Goal <br />The Elk River l��ission <br />Attachments <br />■ Zamboni Quote <br />The Elk River Vision <br />A 2a�elcolning co�nlnunity 2a�ith T evolutiona� y and spizzted T esou� cefulness, exceptional <br />se�vice, and coln�nunity engagelnent that encou�ages and ins�iz•es pTo�pe�zty. <br />PowEREo ar <br />�I'1 ���� <br />Up�iited.• August 2020 <br />
