Statement of Purpose

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE:  This resolution authorizes the purchase of a 2024 sander body/front and side plows and outfitting for snow removal and sanding operations. 

The 2014-2015 Fleet Study found that, in order to minimize total City vehicle costs for purchase and maintenance, vehicles and associated attachments of this kind should be replaced when they reach 12 years old.

This purchase is under Minnesota State contract 222958, release S-863(5).
