Summary

Council discussed replacing a worn John Deere mower for McCallum maintenance, with staff saying the existing unit is beyond economical repair and will be traded in; financing details were discussed briefly.

Council reviewed a FY26 amendment to appropriate funds to replace a John Deere mower used by McCallum maintenance and operations.

Staff said the mower's age and hours mean repairs are not worth pursuing and that the city will trade the old unit in. "That's the mower," one councilor noted while staff described trade-in and depreciation questions.

Council briefly discussed estimated replacement costs and the high price of specialized hydrostatic drive options, then moved on to other consent items.
