Board approves $7,500 trailer and $14,900 aerator purchases for utility operations
Summary
Utility Director Darryl Green received approval to buy a $7,500 replacement trailer for utility equipment and a $14,900 aerator to address odor complaints at the North Lagoon (10–12 week lead time).
The board approved two utility equipment purchases requested by Utility Director Darryl Green: a $7,500 replacement trailer from Cherry & Sons to haul a mini-X and a $14,900 aerator to address odor complaints near the North Lagoon. Green said the old trailer had broken springs and the aerator has a 10–12 week lead time; he asked that the aerator be ordered so installation could precede summer air conditions that might worsen odor issues.
Alderman Keith Smith moved to approve the trailer purchase (seconded by Ald. Barber) and Alderman Donna R. Butler moved to approve the aerator (seconded by Ald. Maness); both motions carried. The minutes record the costs and the aerator lead time but do not specify installation dates or funding subaccounts beyond the gas department's work equipment fund for the trailer and general utility funds for the aerator.
