SUBMITTED BY: Donna Kaluzniak, Utility Directo
DATE: May 14, 2004
BACKGROUND: Bids were advertised for atractor/front end loader for use at the
Wastewater Treatment Facility. This equipment is used specifically for removing biosolids from
the sludge drying beds as part of the treatment process. A Kubota Model L3430HSTC or equal

'"' meet the specifications, including the requirement for a cab, and was rejected. The lowest bidder
meeting specifications was Coastal Equipment Systems, Inc. in the amount of $24,314.96.
BUDGET: A total of $25,000 was budgeted for purchase of the tractor in the Sewer Fund
under account number 410-5508-535-64-01.
