CITY OF LA PORTE <br />INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Jack O , elope <br />ager DATE: February 4, 1985 <br />FROM: Jerry Hoector of Public Works <br />SUBJECT: Seal BiMower Attachment <br />The City of La Porte has budgeted a replacement Hydraulic Articulated Boom <br />Mower Attachment to replace a 1979 model slope mower. This is for the mower <br />assembly only. The tractor is in excellent shape and should give several <br />years more service. <br />Bids were sent to five vendors, and one bid was received from Lansdowne -Moody. <br />The remaining bidders declined to bid, citing liability in transportation and <br />uncertainty in their ability to fit their product to the existing tractor. <br />They did indicate that they would bid on a complete tractor and mower package. <br />Lansdowne -Moody has agreed to replace the mower and boom assembly with a <br />Terrain King Mower for a total price of $12,541.37. Budgeted amount for this <br />project is $15,000. <br />I recommend that the City purchase a Terrain King Boom Mower, to be fitted to <br />an existing Ford 6600 Tractor, from Lansdowne -Moody for $12,541.37. <br />If you should have any questions, please advise. <br />JLH/lw <br />
