Johnsburg board approves posting of surplus highway equipment after committee flags structural issues
Summary
The highway committee reported structural problems with a truck and the board approved a motion directing the highway superintendent to post surplus equipment. Committee members said further investment in the vehicle would be ill-advised.
The Town of Johnsburg voted to direct the highway superintendent to post surplus highway equipment after committee members described structural issues with an existing truck. Committee members recommended posting the vehicle as surplus rather than investing more funds into repairs, and the board approved the motion by voice vote.
A committee member cautioned against "pouring money into a negative thing," describing the truck as having serious structural issues and recommending replacement rather than continued repair. The motion to post the equipment was moved, seconded and carried without recorded opposition.
