MEMORANDUM:
/
To: Thomas G. Bradford, Village Manager
From: Thomas C. Hall, Water System Manager
Date: April 4, 1988
Subject: Purchase of Backhoe
I have completed research in reference to the above and
wish to seek council approval for this purchase. This
item was included and approved in the 1988 F.Y. Budget.
The unit we wish to purchase will cost $22,546.00 amount
in the budget was $23,675.00. Specifications are as
follows: Ford Model 555B Tractor-Loader-Backhoe w/1
cu.yd. loader bucket. 24 inch trenching bucket and 201
cu.in. engine.
This unit would be purchased through State Contract No.
760-00-87-1, Bid No. 349-760-000-P, Vendor No. 38-

Maintenance Department as it will fulfill their needs.
