Minong board caps Freightliner truck payment after additional charges
Summary
Board member Joe Radzak moved to negotiate the outstanding Freightliner truck balance with the vendor; the board approved an amendment capping payment at $102,625 after noting additional tariff and escalator charges had raised the balance from the original $169,600.
Town road and fleet matters were discussed on June 8 as board members reviewed additional costs tied to a newly delivered Freightliner truck. T. Conaway brought the board's attention to an email from Channing Lokken documenting extra tariff and escalator charges; the minutes state the original remaining price was $169,600.
Supervisor Joe Radzak moved to contact Premier Truck Group to negotiate the Freightliner truck payment and initially proposed a target reduction to $100,268.50. He amended the motion to cap the town's payment at no more than $102,625; the board approved the amended motion.
The minutes indicate the truck has been delivered and the board authorized Radzak to negotiate with the vendor; no final settlement amount was recorded in the minutes and further staff follow-up was implied.
