AGENDA ITEM #9.2 <br /> City Of <br /> Pequott <br /> Lakes— <br /> REPORT TO <br /> CITY COUNCIL <br /> Report Prepared by: Nancy Malecha <br /> Date: February 29, 2016 <br /> Subject: Request to Purchase Tractor/Mower <br /> Report: At the February 2nd Council Meeting, the request <br /> to purchase a Challenger MT515E, four-wheel drive, <br /> tractor/mower was tabled to gather further information. <br /> Mike and I recgntly met with Council Member Pederson to <br /> address some of the concerns as noted below. <br /> • The Challenger MT515E tractor/mower takes <br /> approximately nine months from order to delivery. <br /> • The tractor/mower would be used to maintain the <br /> City's new irrigation field (50 acres), ditches (see <br /> areas in red on the attached map), and retention pond <br /> areas. <br /> • The cost of contracting these services is approximately <br /> $100,000 for 20 years and contracting has been <br /> inconsistent in meeting the City's needs of <br /> maintaining proper aesthetics and safety in these areas <br /> in the past. <br />
