Purpose/ Short Description:
Funding for Trucking Contracts
Total Amount: 40,000.00
Priority: 1
Is this request Maintenance of Effort or a New Initiative? New Initiative
Reason for Request:
In lieu of hiring additional LEO's, this funding would be used to hire larger, more efficient trucks (with
drivers) on an "as- needed" basis to haul asphalt and materials for paving projects performed by DPW.
Effect if not funded:
Existing staff would be used to drive smaller, City owned trucks between the project and the asphalt plant.
This puts a burden on our resources that could be better utilized on other DPW maintenance work.
