Council approves purchase of automated brine production system for streets division
Summary
Council approved Ordinance 86-2026 to accept a proposal from Kaleida Truck Equipment Inc. for a Brine Boss automated salt brine production system, appropriating $116,500 and using existing truck-budget credits to offset costs.
The Streets Division recommended purchasing a Brine Boss automated salt brine production system from Kaleida Truck Equipment (Veritec Industries) after evaluating options at the national snow and ice control convention and testing equipment. Staff said the purchase can be funded partially by crediting remaining truck budget and covering a modest overage from the snow-and-ice materials account, which has sufficient balance.
When the ordinance was read for adoption, the appropriation amount indicated was $116,500. Council approved Ordinance 86-2026 as an emergency measure to authorize the mayor and finance director to accept the proposal and appropriate funds.
