The <br />proposed Kromer is able to drag ball fields, as well as paint lines on soccer fields and ball fields. <br />Attachment C is specifications and a quote for $33,665 a new Kromer Field Maintainer Tractor. <br />The vendor came to Public Works for a demo and we were able to see the machine in action. The <br />Kromer is a multi-use ball field drag and striping unit that will add to the efficiency of our <br />operations. If we order soon, the vendor has said we could take delivery before the field prep <br />season is over in 2022. <br /> <br />The total estimated cost for the equipment, after auction, is $32,665 (estimating $1,000 in <br />proceeds on sale of old machine). The CIP includes a budget of $30,000 for this equipment in <br />2022. <br /> <br />Unit 414 – 2005 Felling Trailer <br />The trailer (Attachment D) has passed the safety inspection this year, but during the inspection, <br />rust corrosion has been identified that includes holes rusted in the wheel wells along with other <br />normal operation wear after 17 years of use. If the trailer is kept in service for another year, the <br />wiring for the trailer brakes and lights will need to be replaced. <br /> <br />Unit 414 repair costs: <br />• 2019 - $430 <br />• 2020 - $252 <br />• 2021 - $750 <br /> <br />Staff recommends replacement of Unit 414 with a 20-foot TowMaster Trailer T-12D with <br />beavertail. Attachment E is a quote for $12,253.50 and details for the proposed trailer. The trailer <br />is state contract pricing, and would need to be ordered soon to take delivery by spring 2023. <br /> <br />The total estimated cost for the trailer, after auction, is $8,753.50 (estimating $3,500 in proceeds <br />on sale of old trailer). The CIP includes a budget of $12,000 for this equipment in 2022. <br /> <br />Financial Impact <br /> <br />The Capital Improvement Program for equipment purchases table is provided in Attachment A <br />which shows the annual and total five-year financial impact for the current CIP.
