In the adoption of the 2021 Capital Budget, Council appropriated funding for certain pieces of equipment in the Capital Equipment Plan.

All equipment has been listed in information provided to the City Council at previous budget discussion work sessions, and approval is contingent upon final adoption of the 2021 budget.
All the equipment listed will be purchased through the State Cooperative Purchasing Program from various vendors. Contract pricing reflects actual dealer price changes since the budget was developed.
