To: Town Board
From: Graham Foster
Subject: Equipment replacement
I would like to go to bid for two new trucks to replace Truck #16
and Truck #1.
Truck #16 is a 1981 Chevrolet wit~ approximately 150,000 miles on it.
Recently it blew a head gasket. When we took apart the engine we found the
block is cracked between cylinders #1 & #2. The cost of a new engine
installed is estimated at $2000. This would give us a very marginal vehicle
due to the wear and tear of 16 years of use.
Truck #1 is a 1967 Chevrolet in very poor condition.
Both these trucks are approaching the point of being unsafe and are
certainly' unreliable.
The proposed new trucks would be equipped with plows and multipurpc~~~sc
bodies which eliminates the purchase of additional sanders while still
giving the advantage of having year round dump trucks.
