Public works seeks trucks, sweeper and landscaping funding to sustain improvements
Summary
Public Works Office Manager Janet Dye requested a curb sweeper, three replacement trucks and a commercial garbage truck to maintain street/rights-of-way and beautification gains; recent hires and contractor bids were cited as part of sustaining service levels.
Public Works Office Manager Janet Dye updated the commission on operations and asked for capital equipment to maintain recent service-level and beautification gains. Dye reiterated requests for a curb sweeper, three replacement trucks and a commercial garbage truck, and said the department is exploring contractor bids and recent hires to sustain rights-of-way and green-space upkeep.
Dye said landscaping and beautification improvements have positively affected public perception and that continued investment in crews and equipment is a cost-effective way to maintain those results. Commissioners asked for cost estimates to be included in the budget workbook for comparison with other capital priorities.
