Committee approves purchase of truck deck/storage for new vehicle from tree‑sale funds
Summary
The committee approved buying a deck/storage system to fit a newly leased Dodge truck and agreed to place the old unit in surplus; cost to be drawn from the tree‑sale account per staff recommendation.
Marquette County Land and Water Conservation Committee members approved a purchase to add a deck/storage system to a newly leased Dodge truck and agreed to surplus the old deck unit.
Staff proposed buying the deck and storage equipment to fit the new truck and said the tree‑sale account would cover the cost. "I would propose that's how we bought the last one... out of the tree account," staff said during the discussion. Committee members moved, seconded and approved the purchase by voice vote; the old unit will be placed on surplus for disposal.
Committee discussion noted the deck system increases the truck’s utility for park and maintenance tasks (hauling mats, brush, signs and posts). Staff said prior surplus sales have sometimes returned surprising amounts and that net proceeds will be handled through normal county surplus processes.
No roll‑call vote was recorded in the transcript; the action was approved by voice vote.
