RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends purchasing two new 37,000# GVW Single Axle Trucks with dump bed, sander and plow from the low bidder, I-State; trading units #1183 and #1185 for $27,000.00; purchasing rod markers and rubber shields on both trucks for $434.00, and; the 5 year transmission/engine warranty for $4,018.00.  This yields a net purchase price for both trucks of $281,198.00.
