Council defers decision on brush truck bid, orders follow‑up on downtown lights; approves surplus sale and planning‑board appointment
The council reviewed several public‑works and equipment items, including a sealed bid for a brush truck chassis, downtown light outages, the sale of surplus equipment and a board appointment.
Staff reported one bid for a chassis for a brush truck (a 2026 Ram 3500 Tradesman quoted at $47,991) but council members asked that staff and Travis review specifications before making a purchase decision; no purchase authorization was made.
Council members also asked staff to check why some downtown lights were out; staff reported a replacement part for one fixture had been ordered and that breakers had caused outages on one side of the street. Members asked staff to confirm timers and return with repairs completed.
A motion to accept the sale of a surplus two‑post car lift offered on GovDeals for $675 was approved. The council also approved reappointing John Smith to the planning and zoning board of adjustments, noting he had served previously and was willing to return.
No additional funding commitments for vehicle purchases were made at the meeting; staff will return with specifications and recommendations for the brush truck and with an update on downtown lighting repairs.
