Council approves amended plat for Montana Ridge Estates and authorizes two public-works equipment purchases
Summary
The council approved an amended final plat for Montana Ridge Estates, Tract 5165 Unit 2, and approved purchases of two crack-sealing machines from Krafco/Craftco under Sourcewell contracts; all routine items passed with recorded tallies.
The Bullhead City Council on July 15 approved several routine consent and procurement items, including an amended final plat for Montana Ridge Estates (Tract 5165, Unit 2) and two public-works equipment purchases.
Item 5: The council removed item 5 from consent for separate consideration and then approved the amended final plat for Montana Ridge Estates. The developer and staff were present; the council vote recorded 6 in favor and zero opposed on the final action to approve the amended final plat.
Equipment purchases: Public works staff requested and the council approved two budgeted purchases under Sourcewell cooperative contracts. The council authorized purchase of a CrackVac (Craftco, Chandler, AZ) in the amount of $83,119.05 plus taxes and freight and an EZ Series 2 1500 diesel melter (Krafco/Craftco) in the amount of $147,629.33 plus taxes and freight. Public Works Director Angie Johnson explained the CrackVac "will be used to vacuum the cracks prior to us crack sealing all the cracks on the roadways" and said the equipment is under a Sourcewell contract with two-year warranties; both purchases were approved 7-0.
Why it matters: The Montana Ridge plat advances a residential subdivision approval; the equipment purchases are part of the city's scheduled pavement maintenance program and were budgeted items discussed during the budget process. Staff noted the CrackVac replaces a blower-style machine that produced dust in residential areas, and the diesel melter replaces a 15-year-old unit the city had been renting when repairs were needed.
