estimated cost of $3,000.00 and (1) small flexible mower at an estimated cost of
$7,500.00. An amendment to the adopted 2007 budget is necessary to move forward. I
have reviewed the budget and make the following recommendation:
Increase A7110.200

MEMO TO: SUPERVISOR RUGGIERO
FROM: RALPH HOLT
RE: CAPITAL PLAN REQUIREMENTS
SUPERVISOR
JOSEPH RUGGIERO
TOWN COUNCIL
WILLIAM H. BEALE

JOSEPH P. PAOLONI
The Recreation Department requested four (4) much needed items in our 2007 plan.
Hopefully they will be available to us soon. They are:
1. A four-wheel-drive pick-up truck
2. Large trailer
3. A four-wheel-drive mower
4. Small flexible mower (to cut infields)
New Truck
We have been doing our best to keep our equipment serviceable. Our truck
inventory has two vehicles either 20 -years -old or approaching that. A great deal of time
is spent servicing these vehicles. This is not practical or time efficient.
Trailer
We have two (2) trailers that are used constantly. One of these is not in good
shape, despite our continual repairs. I believe this to be a safety issue.
Four-wheel-drive Mower
We are just about into the season where the need to cut grass at least twice a week
is upon us. We have also increased the mowing acreage with the addition of Carnwath.
It is our hope to be able to keep cutting more of Carnwath.
Small flexible Mower
r This small mower will be used mainly to care for baseball infields or other tight
areas to be cut. With this mower available, it can be stored at Robinson Lane and Little
League could use it to cut the infields in an emergency. This would aid us and for this
flexibility Little League would monitor the use of the lighted fields. This would save
$4,600.
Our estimated costs fpr these items bmitted in the plan are as follows:
1. Truck $ 00
2. Trailer 3,000.00
3. 4 -wheel drive mower $24
4. Small mower 7,500.00
Your assistance would be appreciated.
