Summary

Public Works was authorized to prepare specifications for two tandem plow trucks, with an estimated cost of $300,000–$350,000 and payment due on delivery in 2026 or 2027; any purchase agreement must come back to the board.

Public Works Director Nick Klisch asked the board for approval to begin preparing specifications for two new tandem plow trucks to replace 2012 and 2015 models. Klisch said the anticipated cost range is $300,000 to $350,000 and that payment would not be due until delivery in 2026 or 2027. The board gave consensus to prepare specifications; Klisch reiterated any purchase agreement would return to the board for approval.

The board’s endorsement allows staff to draft technical specifications and solicit bids so that a future purchase decision will be informed by firm pricing and delivery timelines. Commissioners did not commit funds at this meeting and reserved the final purchase decision for a later agenda when specifications and firm quotes are available.
