Item/Subject: Resolve, Appropriation of Funds for the Purchase of One Ice Breaking
Attachment
Responsible Departmcan Admioistratlon-Motor Pool
Commentary: In recent years, the City has had continuing problems with ice build-up on above
and roads. Currently, &a City uses graders to scrape the ice and remove it from
streets Using graders is a lengthy process and the effectiveness is Banded as the
City has only two graders. A more efficient means of ice removal is through the
use of an ice breaking attachment for the grader. Although a fainly new piece of
equipment m the marketplace, otha communities have used the attachment
successfully. The attachment would decrease wear on the graders and would
increase the Citys ability to clear streets more quickly.
Manager's Comments: This request to porch= this enachrom `nes reviewed and approved by the
Finance Committee on Jmusry 20th Delivery is expected m take
approximately four weeks, and given that time frame, the City will place the
Purchase Order fir the attachment with RP. Fairfield ediably.
