Purchase of Street Sweeper <br />I Dwayne Stafford, Public Works Superintendent, advised that the City of Arden Hills currently <br /> owns one (1) 1980 Elgin Street Sweeping Machine. This was a used machine when purchased in <br /> 1988, and was previously owned by the City ofEau Claire, Wisconsin. The trend of most cities is <br />I to replace a street sweeper when it is 8, 10, or 12 years old. The Public Works Department of <br /> Arden Hills has budgeted $110,000 for the replacement of this machine in 1997. Discussing this <br /> with the sales representatives for this brand of sweeper, Staff feels this is a reasonable figure <br />I which should cover the maehine and sales tax costs. This is a unique brand of street sweeper <br /> whieh is difficult to bid. <br />I Mr. Stafford explained the State of Minnesota purchasing department has in place a Cooperative <br /> Purchasing Venture, which allows members of this agreement to purchase equipment and <br />it materials at the State's bid price.
