City of <br />Pequot <br />Lakes _ _ <br />AGENDA ITEM #9.1 <br />REPORT TO <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />Report Prepared by: Mike Loven, Public Works Supervisor <br />Date• <br />Sub_iect. <br />February 3, 2014 <br />Request to Purchase Dump/Plow Truck <br />Report: The Street Department is requesting permission to purchase a new <br />Dump/Plow Truck. The truck is a 2015 single axle Mack Chassis from Nuss <br />Truck & Equipment in Roseville Mn. The cost of the truck is <br />$108,403.61. <br />The dump box, light package and all other snow removal equipment will come <br />from Towmaster Inc. in Litchfield Mn at a cost of $81,307.00. The truck and all <br />the equipment was listed and purchased through a State Contract Program, <br />eliminating the individual bidding process. The purchase of the truck, if approved <br />would come in two parts. When the order is placed for the chassis, delivery would <br />be approximately 90 to 120 days. This would require payment of the chassis at the <br />time of delivery. The truck would go to Towmaster for the rest of the equipment <br />to be installed. This could take another 45 to 50 days. Payment for this would be <br />sometime in late July. The timing of this depends on how many other trucks are <br />ordered before this one. <br />Council Action Requested: Council motion authorizing staff to purchase a <br />dump/plow truck; the chassis from Nuss Truck & Equipment at $108,403.61 and <br />the dump box and associated equipment from Townmaster, Inc. at $81,307.00. <br />
