Item # 6.3.
MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor & City Council
FROM: Gary Leirmoe, WWTP Chief Operater
DATE: September 20,2005
SUBJECT: Replacement of WWTP Tractor
The Elk River Wastewater Department recently sold the Bio-Solids Land
Application Equipment at a City Auction.The Bio-Solids will be applied
By a private firm.The only change is they will use their application
Equipment, rather than ours.This is a more practical way of land
Applying the Bio-Solids.The tractor sold was a 1996 8770, New Holland.
While this tractor was used for other jobs around the treatment facility,
It was to large to get into tight places.l am requesting permission to
A 2005 Kubota L5030 HSTC, with a front loader & forks.This is a much
Smaller tractor and would be more practical around the Treatment Facility
But still large enough to lift any heavy piece of equipment.This would be
Purchased with funds from the sale of the New Holland.
