The Moira Town Board authorized purchase of a used Thomas Pro Tough 400 screener for $47,000 on March 11 and amended the FY2025 budget to fund the acquisition.
According to meeting minutes, the Superintendent of Highways located the screener, which was examined and described as "in excellent condition and working order, with only 200 hours of operation on the machine." The board resolved to purchase the unit from Long Lake Camp, Inc. (c/o President Marc Katz) with budget funds drawn from DA9130-200 — Highway Maintenance Equipment.
Contingent on the screener resolution, the board amended the FY2025 budget by moving $47,000 from DA-9950-900 (Transfer to Capital) to DA9130-200. The budget amendment was adopted as Resolution #78-2025 by unanimous consent. The minutes record the procurement and budget transfer as coordinated steps to finalize the purchase and equip the Highway Department.
