MEMORANDUM
October 7, 2022 TO: Chip Koogle, Town Manager FROM: Clifford Matthews, Director of Public Works RE: Purchase Consideration of the Patriot Pivot Track Closer In the approved FY2023 Enterprise Capital Budget was $7,000 for the purchase of a Patriot Pivot Track Closer. This piece of equipment is used to maintain the pivot tracks at the Water Reuse Farm caused by the irrigation pivot wheels.
The price of $5,500 plus freight was quoted on 1/2/22, post-COVID. Due to inflated cost of manufacturing, freight increases, and supply chain issues the current price is $12,040.14 (including freight charges).
Staff recommends the purchase from Minden Machine Shop Inc for $12,040.14.
Respectfully submitted for your consideration.
PROPOSED MOTION:
I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE PURCHASE OF THE PATRIOT PIVOT TRACK
CLOSER FROM MINDEN MACHINE SHOP INC. AT THE PRICE NOT TO EXCEED
$12,040.14.
