City of <br /> <br />E <br /> <br />River <br /> <br />M£MORANDUM <br /> <br />item # <br /> <br />3.5. <br /> <br />TO: Mayor and City Council <br /> <br />FROM: Gary Leirmoe, Chief Operator <br /> Wastewater Treatment Plant <br /> <br />DATE: January 16, 2001 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Truck Purchases <br /> <br />The 2001 department budget includes capital outlays for the purchase of a <br />l-ton pickup, accompanied by a fiat bed and crane, and a ~A-ton pickup. These <br />vehicles will replace two 1986 trucks. The l-ton and crane are used to remove <br />pumps from lift stations for repair and maintenance. The following quotes <br />were received: <br /> <br />1-Ton Truck ~A Ton Truck Dealer <br />$25,236.24 $24,217 Elk River Ford <br />$26,033.93 $25,135 Elk River Dodge <br />$27,423.04 ........... Saxon Motors <br /> <br />Flat Bed & Crane <br /> <br />Dealer <br /> <br />$14,870.64 <br />$15,995.00 <br />$17,063.43 <br /> <br />Crysteel <br />J-Craft <br />L-Z Equipment <br /> <br />These quotes include the tax. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />It is my recommendation that the l-ton and ~A-ton truck be purchased from <br />Elk River Ford. I would also recommend that the fiat bed and crane be <br />purchased from J-Craft. Phil Hals, with the Street/Park Department, has the <br />J-Craft fiat beds and Mr. Hals highly recommends them even though the price <br />is slightly higher. <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
