THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM

REPORT TO COUNCIL.

1989 07 04

TO: BR. Kirk, City Administrator

FROM: K. Janna Taylor, Parks & Recreation Director

SUBJECT: Loader/Backhoe

Recommendation

1. That we purchase the Melroe Model Articulated Loader Backhoe at a cost of $55,000 from Bebcat Country Sales Ine.

2. That the money for this equipment be taken from the equipment reserve,

Background & Comments

The “Bobcat” being ordered will replace the present Zettlemeyer front end loader. The mechanic has recommended replacement due to the cestly repairs; the Zettlemeyer is eleven years old. The model that we are purchasing will also have a backhoe attachment which will be most useful for digging graves. Presently we have to "borrow" from public works and it means that their projects fall behind. The above price includes the trade in for the zettlemeyer at $4,800
