Humboldt board OKs utility box purchase, reviews mower and bulldozer options and manhole repair
Summary
Board authorized purchase of a quoted $12,050 utility box for a new truck, discussed buying or renting a bulldozer for parking-lot work and soliciting mower quotes for parks; staff will obtain repair quotes for a manhole at 2nd and Jefferson.
The Humboldt City Board voted to purchase a utility box quoted at approximately $12,050 for a new truck after a motion by Theresa Muth and a second by Julien Gambs; the vote was recorded as unanimous. Public works staff reported that if Mike Beaner and Gene Betz perform the installation, the city could save about $2,595 on installation costs.
Board members also discussed park maintenance equipment: Beaner said he will obtain quotes for a different mower for park and ball fields. The board discussed renting or buying a bulldozer to move dirt for a parking lot serving the ball parks and asked Beaner to contact the WCBA to determine whether the association will cover the work. Beaner reported that the manhole at 2nd and Jefferson needs repair and will solicit quotes for that work.
