Township to repair Activity Center sign, considers equipment trades and surplus sales to fund trailer purchase
Summary
Manager Tom Garrett reported the Activity Center sign is not working and Valley Electric will attempt a repair; staff also proposed vendor changes to reduce costs, buying a broadcast spreader for the Ventrac and selling a 2002 dozer and a lightly used deck‑over trailer to pay for a roughly $9,000 trailer.
Manager Tom Garrett told the board the Activity Center electronic sign is not working and that Valley Electric will try another repair. Garrett said staff identified cost savings by switching vendors and outlined several equipment actions: buy a broadcast spreader for the Ventrac, sell a 2002 dozer, and sell a lightly used deck‑over trailer to fund the purchase of a trailer priced at about $9,000.
No formal motions or authorizations for equipment purchases or sales were recorded in the workshop minutes; these items were presented as operational updates for board consideration.
Next steps: staff will pursue repairs with Valley Electric and return recommendations on equipment sales and the proposed trailer purchase for board approval as needed.
