Huachuca City Manager Suzanne Harvey told the Town Council that the Greater Arizona Development Authority approved a $4,529,000.00 low‑interest, long‑term loan to help the town acquire heavy equipment for landfill and public works operations. Council discussed the award during the E.5 agenda item and no further approval action was recorded beyond the update.
"we were approved for $4,529,000.00 in a low interest long term loan," Manager Harvey said, adding the funding will let the town "purchase equipment that is badly needed for the Town and budget better for the purchase and maintenance of them." The presentation did not include detail in the minutes about specific machines to be purchased beyond the general request for heavy equipment needed for landfill and public works.
Council took no additional recorded vote on the GADA update during the meeting; follow‑up actions, procurement timelines and responsible departments were not specified in the minutes. The Town will need to return with purchase details and appropriate budget amendments if and when staff request formal authorization to obligate funds.
