Purchase of One Skip Loader Tractor (Addition) for the Transportation Department as requested by the Fleet Services Department (Citywide)
This equipment is crucial to the maintenance and repair of the City of Mesa storm infrastructure. It will be used to mow unlined channels, sweep debris from roadways after storm events, move various materials into and out of unlined channels, grade to maintain slopes, and maintain road shoulders and mitigate fugitive dust, which contributes to improving air quality. The loader will improve operational efficiency during storm cleanup activities and will provide another asset to Transportation Field Operations to utilize for maintenance.
The Fleet Services and Transportation Departments and Purchasing recommend authorizing the purchase using the NJPA cooperative contract with RDO Equipment Co., at $114,411.70. This purchase is funded by the Environmental Compliance Fee.
