Huachuca City council approves $30,235.63 in additional repairs for Caterpillar D6 dozer
Summary
Council approved an additional $30,235.63 to complete repairs to the D6 dozer after staff found both sides of the final drive required replacement; Town Manager Suzanne Harvey said the machine is "a critical piece of equipment."
Town Manager Suzanne Harvey told council that an earlier-approved repair covered only one side of the D6 final drive but that, once disassembled, both sides required replacement, increasing costs by $30,235.63. "When they got it up there and took it apart, both sides need to be replaced so it is an additional $30,000, that is our D6.It's a critical piece of equipment. We also just paid it off, so we need to do the repair," Harvey said.
Council approved the additional repairs on a motion by Johann Wallace, seconded by Christy Hirshberg; the minutes record the motion passed unanimously. The minutes note the dozer is critical to public works operations and reference the recent payoff of the equipment loan but do not list a procurement or vendor name for the repair work in these minutes.
