I see no need for two mowers ofthis type within the department and the derelict unit istaking upspace atthe Maintenance Barn, I would like to recommend we list this piece as surplus equipment and put it out to bid "as is", I would request that any monies received in this sale be placed in "Tractors" 711O�419 Also, snoupha weeks ago we sent load of accumulated scrap metal to Charles Effron Recycling which netted a payment of $70. This check was turned over to Frederick Awino, Town Accountant and deposited to the General Fund- I request that this amount also be transferred to "Tractors' 71 10419, Thank you, {,T-- - Steve Frazier Supervisor ofBuildings and Grounds
