Summary

Trustees approved purchase of a stainless salter with vibrator for $8,890, authorized renting a street sweeper at the state-contract rate and approved purchase of an LG 20-cubic-foot refrigerator for about $600; all recorded votes were yes with Deputy Mayor/Trustee Dave Smith absent.

Trustee Jim Crawford recommended buying a stainless salter with a vibrator kit, arguing stainless holds value better; he moved to purchase the salter for $8,890. Trustee Maryellen Canuel seconded and the motion passed with all present voting yes (Dave Smith absent). The board also approved renting a street sweeper for one week at the state contract rate and authorized buying an LG 20-cubic-foot refrigerator for the back apartment at an approximate cost of $600 from Lowe's.

These procurement motions were discussed as part of new business and recorded as unanimous among present members; the DPW earlier noted a need for a sweeper and cited a state-contract rental rate of $2,950 per week as a reference point for operational planning.
