SUBJECT: OVERHRUL OF FORESTRY DEPARTMEPJT - HIGH RANGER AERIAL BUCKET
Approximately $8,500 is budgeted in 1979 for a major overhaul of the hi9h ranger
aerial bucket operated by the Forestry Division.
After checking with Wisconsirt Public Service Corporation as to where they f�ave
their high ra�gers repaired, they suggested and ti+ghly recommended, which is the
sole source in the State of Wisconsin, the Utilit:y Equipment Company of Brookfield,
Wisconsin. They have done all of the repairs and overhauis for WPS for years.
The other possible source might be driving the truck all the way down to Fort
Wayne, lndiana.
Boyd and I have obtained ao approximate quote from the Utility Equipment Company
regarding the overfiaui, We feet that since they are relialale and sole souYCe of
service, we recommend that bids be waived and a resotution be p}aced on the
January 4, 1979 Council agenda authorizing us to enter a contract with Utility
Equlpment Company. l hope that you v:ill cancur.
