Trappe approves $12,289.80 speed-trailer purchase to monitor local traffic
Summary
The Trappe Town Council unanimously approved purchase of a speed trailer from 95 Traffic Safety Supply for $12,289.80; President Schmidt asked staff to explore picking it up to avoid a $600 freight charge.
The Trappe Town Council unanimously approved the purchase of a speed trailer at its Nov. 19 workshop.
Town Administrator Erin Braband presented six quotes for a speed trailer. Commissioner Jeremy Newnam moved to approve the quote from 95 Traffic Safety Supply in the amount of $12,289.80; Commissioner Walter Chase seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. The minutes record an additional $600 freight charge; President Schmidt asked Braband to ask whether the trailer could be picked up to avoid that fee.
The Council did not record additional detail in the minutes about the trailer model, deployment schedule or funding source for the purchase. The Administrator will proceed with the procurement steps authorized by the vote.
