Tim Simon, Finance Director
Action Requested
Staff requests approval from City Council for the purchase of a 2,000 gallon dual wall waste oil
storage tank.
Background/Discussion
In March of 2008, the Sherburne County SCORE Committee approved a City grant application
for the purchase and installation of a dual wall waste oil storage tank. This tank will be used to
supply fuel to the waste oil furnace in the street division equipment storage building.
The street division collects waste oil from our fleet maintenance division and from the general
public at our used oil drop off site. This used oil is then burned in one of two furnaces that
supply winter heat for equipment storage buildings.
Financial Impact
The SCORE grant provides 75% of the funding or $11,200. The City's contribution is 25% or
$3,800. Landfill abatement funds are the staff recommended source for the City's financial
commitment
