RE: Rotary Snow Blower Bid
BACKGROUND
The Street Division has noted that their 1983 loader- mounted rotary snow blower needs to be
replaced as it requires much labor and maintenance to keep it operational. The heavy snow and
ice of the last several winters have forced additional repairs to this snow blower for extended
periods, hampering the snow removal process.
ANALYSIS
Working in conjunction with the Street Division, Purchasing reviewed and prepared proposals
seeking vendors for this rotary snow blower. Bid requests were sent to four rotary snow blower
manufacturers. Bids were received on January 15, 2009. The bid tabulation is attached.
FISCAL IMPACT
Replacement of the rotary snow blower will have a fiscal impact of $128,770. This item was
budgeted in the 2009 CIP equipment replacement at $130,000.
RECOMMENDATION
Working with the Street Division, Purchasing reviewed the sole bid received and is
recommending the City Council award the rotary snow blower bid to Bruce Municipal
Equipment, Inc. for $128,770. The Street Division is also supportive of this recommendation as
Bruce Municipal's bid is for a Snogo model that is compatible with their current loader- mounted
systems. The Snogo snow blower will move approximately 1,500 -1,800 tons of snow per hour.
