Highway department to buy Cross Conveyor Spreader for $10,802
Summary
The board approved purchase of a Cross Conveyor Spreader with reversing valve from Bert’s Truck Equipment for $10,802 to improve bituminous unloading and distribution; $9,000 had been budgeted.
Lincoln County Highway Engineer Joe Wilson asked the board to approve purchase of a Cross Conveyor Spreader to improve unloading and uniform distribution of bituminous material. The county had budgeted $9,000 for the equipment; a quote from Bert’s Truck Equipment totaled $10,802 (including a reversing valve). The Board approved the purchase to be paid to Bert’s Truck Equipment of Mhd Inc.
Wilson explained the cross conveyor is expected to speed unloading and reduce auger plugging and slowdowns associated with the current auger head sander. The purchase was recorded in the minutes as approved by motion with all commissioners voting in favor.
