Raymore approves first reading of bulk road salt contract at $70.23 per ton
Summary
On first reading the council approved an ordinance to contract with Central Salt LLC to supply bulk road salt at $70.23 per ton, with an option for two additional one-year extensions; staff noted the price represents a $1.91 per-ton increase from last year.
The Raymore City Council gave first reading approval on Monday to an ordinance authorizing a contract with Central Salt LLC for supply and delivery of bulk road salt at $70.23 per ton.
Public works staff told the council they received two bids and recommended Central Salt LLC. In a staff report, Mr. Salisbury said the $70.23 per‑ton price, including delivery, is $1.91 higher than last year and that the contract includes an option for two additional one‑year terms.
The ordinance (Bill 39‑75) was presented on first reading and the council moved to approve that reading; the mayor pro tem announced the motion passed. No additional public discussion or roll-call vote detail was recorded in the transcript for the first-reading action.
The contract allows the city to secure road de‑icing material ahead of winter; staff emphasized the year‑over‑year price increase follows market trends the city has seen previously.
