Trustees declare old DPW truck surplus and praise crews for relentless winter response
Summary
Board declared a 2011 DPW dump truck surplus and accepted a monthly DPW recap that included praise for crews who worked through a recent power outage and severe winter conditions.
Trustees declared the Department of Public Works' 2011 dump truck surplus, citing a replacement fleet and insurance and recovery benefits from disposing of older vehicles. The motion passed by voice vote.
In the monthly DPW recap trustees and the mayor praised crews for working long hours during heavy snow, ice and a recent power outage, saying the month "really tested their limits" and that staff worked together across departments. The mayor said disposing of older vehicles reduces insurance costs and returns some funds toward replacements.
