AGENDA ITEM DETAILS
RECOMMENDATION:
City staff is recommending the City Council approve a fleet vehicle purchase.
ARE YOU SEEKING APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT? IS A PUBLIC HEARING REQUIRED?
No No
BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
The 2026 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) includes the replacement of PW55 a 2016 John Deere Zero Turn Mower. The
mower is used daily during the summer for trim mowing and plays a critical role in maintaining parks, athletic
complexes, trails, and other City facilities.
Staff obtained state contract quoted pricing from Minnesota Equipment, Inc. in the amount of $13,748.96. This
amount is within the approved 2026 CIP budget of $14,598. The Utility Department needs a mower for use at one of
the wastewater facilities and has agreed to purchase the 2016 mower for $3,500, which is equivalent to the trade-in
value provided by the dealer.
The Public Works Subcommittee reviewed this request at its January 21, 2026, meeting and recommends
consideration of approval by the City Council.
