Council approves cemetery mower and Bobcat mulching head purchases
Summary
The council approved purchase of a 72-inch X Mark mower from Wild Dave's for $15,919 for the cemetery and a Bobcat mulching head from Bobcat of Marion for $38,110.10 for the street department; both purchases were discussed as budgeted items and passed on roll call.
Commissioner Webb opened and read two mower bids for the cemetery's standardized 72-inch X Mark mower: Fas and Service LLC bid $16,914 and Wild Dave's bid $15,919. Webb moved to buy the mower from Wild Dave's for $15,919; the council approved the purchase on roll call.
Webb also presented a replacement mulching head for the street department’s excavator after earlier compatibility problems with a previous unit. He moved to purchase a Bobcat mulching head from Bobcat of Marion for $38,110.10, noting this is a budgeted item and less than the previously considered amount. The council discussed prior issues with compatibility and approved the purchase on roll call.
