Red Hook approves sale of 1994 wood chipper to Tivoli for $3,000
Summary
The board adopted Resolution No. 23 authorizing the sale of an aging 1994 wood chipper to the Village of Tivoli for $3,000 and discussed retaining access in emergencies under the town's intermunicipal agreement.
The Town Board approved Resolution No. 23 on March 11 to sell a 1994 wood chipper declared surplus to the Village of Tivoli for $3,000.
The highway superintendent recommended disposition of the old chipper after the town acquired a newer machine. Board members discussed the difficulty in putting a price on older equipment and explored whether Tivoli could loan the chipper back to the town in an emergency such as a major storm. The board recognized that, in a simultaneous severe event, the village might also need the equipment.
The resolution describes the item as a 1994 wood chipper deemed unneeded. The motion references a purchase price of $3,000 agreed to by Tivoli and the town adopted the sale by voice vote.
