Mayor & City Council <br />November 18, 1992 <br />Page 2 <br />minutes for the tractor, 3 minutes for the skidsteer, and 1 <br />minute for the front end loader. (This did not include <br />travel time from leaving the shop to get to the area of <br />cleaning.) The skidsteer has to be loaded on to a trailer <br />to be moved. The tractor could be driven. However, top <br />speed on the tractor is seven miles per hour. The front <br />end loader could also be driven and travels twenty miles <br />per hour. <br />The replacement cost for a tractor with a heated cab is in <br />the $45,000- 50,000 range depending on options chosen. The <br />dealers I spoke with informed me that they do not have the <br />quick connect option for mounting a reversible snow plow <br />thereby negating some of the winter time uses. The front <br />end loader is in the $70,000 - 75,000 range and that is with <br />a ten foot, two way reversible plow, block heater, strobe <br />light, radio, west coast mirrors, and a bostrom seat. In <br />addition, it comes with a one year full warranty and an <br />option on the five year extended power train warranty. <br />I am requesting authorization from the Council to write the <br />specifications to put this out for bid so that I may have a <br />more exact cost in time for the first meeting in December. <br />DBH:kpv <br />Page 48 <br />
