Commissioners table $19,664 grinder purchase pending additional quotes
Summary
A $19,664.06 quote for three sewer grinders at the Spring Street lift station from Slaymaker was tabled to the September meeting while staff obtains at least two additional quotes, due to procurement rules for purchases over $12,500.
The board heard a quote from Slaymaker for three grinders for the Spring Street sewer pump lift station totaling $19,664.06. Solicitor Paul C. Bametzreider raised procurement concerns, noting the purchase exceeds $12,500 and questioned whether the township obtained required competitive quotes.
Michelle Testerman moved, Justin Snyder seconded and the board voted to table acceptance of the Slaymaker quote until the September meeting so township personnel could obtain at least two other quotes. Russell Frantz reported an alternative quote from Franklin Miller for a different configuration was over $100,000 and would place equipment outside the wet well.
