Item Summary:

Discussion and Possible Action on Purchase of Four (4) 2026 Ram 3500 Tradesman Regular Cab Trucks from Melloy CJDR for the Solid Waste Department Utilizing New Mexico State Price Agreement 40-00000-24-00068 in the Amount of $302.656.00.

Financial Impact:

The purchase is currently budgeted in the Solid Waste Enterprise Fund's Capital Outlay - Equipment/Vehicles line item (522-200-53001) in the amount of $302,656.00.

Item Discussion:

The Solid Waste Department utilizes flatbed trucks within the Village limits to collect large items, help clean up illegal dumps, relieve dumpsters, clean up bear messes from the side of the roads and sometimes to move/upright or relocate/transport dumpsters. We will keep the Duramax trucks to be used as back-ups. The Duramax trucks are diesel and diesel trucks really are not built for the constant stopping that the bear mess guys do.

Recommendations:

To Approve Purchase of Four (4) 2026 Ram 3500 Tradesman Regular Cab Trucks from Melloy CJDR for the Solid Waste Department Utilizing New Mexico State Price Agreement 40-00000-24-00068 in the Amount of $302.656.00.
