Council authorizes $1,600 extra for dump‑truck liner installation
Summary
Council approved an additional $1,600 to cover labor for a newly installed bed liner in a DPW dump truck, noting the total cost remains below the budgeted amount for vehicle replacements.
Council voted to authorize an additional $1,600 to cover labor that was omitted from the original price for a dump‑truck bed liner. Staff explained the liner had been installed and the vendor later reported labor costs not included in the initial quote; even with the added expense the purchase remains under the budgeted total for trucks.
Members asked whether the vendor had been paid and whether warranty or installation details were in order; staff indicated they would follow up for warranty documentation and confirm payment status. The motion to authorize the additional expenditure passed on roll call.
Councilors noted the importance of reviewing bid and contract details in the future to avoid unanticipated additional charges and directed staff to confirm warranty terms and documentation.
