Summary
The board approved purchases for a new salter (about $7,582) and a plasma cutter (about $2,800) to be paid from available ARPA funds; authorization passed Nov. 20, 2024 with a recorded vote of four ayes, one absent.
Milford's Town Board authorized the Highway Department on Nov. 20, 2024, to purchase a new salter and a plasma cutter using available ARPA funds. Highway Superintendent Billy Sutphin requested the equipment as part of year-end planning; a motion by Council Member Kristen Velasco, seconded by Council Member Vera Sosnowski, carried with four ayes and one member absent.
The minutes record the equipment costs as "a new salter for $7,582.00 and a plasma cutter for $2,800.00" and note the plasma cutter "can cut steel for repairs." Superintendent Sutphin also raised roadside product needs and said he will check dangerous leaning trees at the end of Chlorinator Road near the B&B. The board's authorization directs the Highway Department to proceed using available ARPA funds; the minutes do not specify exact ARPA account lines or delivery timelines.
