Village of Luckey approves two maintenance equipment purchases totaling about $222,220
Summary
The Luckey council voted to buy a Bauman Ford F600 chassis with snow package for $147,220.96 and a Best Equipment Leaf‑VAC authorized up to $75,000, and asked staff to explore financing options.
The Village of Luckey council approved two public‑works equipment purchases at its March 5, 2025 meeting, authorizing a Bauman Ford F600 chassis with snow package and a Leaf‑VAC to support maintenance operations.
Randy Bielinski, the village administrator, presented the recommended purchases. Council approved buying the F600 chassis with snow package from Bauman Ford (sourced via Kalida) at a cost of $147,220.96 after a motion by Councilmember Pat Covarrubias and a second from Councilmember Mike McNulty. The roll-call vote recorded McNulty, Alison Okenka, Don Brickner and Covarrubias voting yes; the motion carried.
On the second item, Covarrubias moved and McNulty seconded authorization to purchase a Leaf‑VAC from Best Equipment. Because the vendor estimate dated from an earlier quote, the council approved using an authorization of up to $75,000 to cover potential price changes; the motion passed on the same roll‑call vote pattern. Council asked staff to look into financing options for both purchases.
The equipment purchases were presented during the maintenance agenda item. The council also scheduled a vehicle‑inventory committee meeting for March 20 to review fleet needs and next steps.
No formal public comment on the purchases was recorded. The council completed the rest of its agenda after the votes.
