Title/Name/Summary
2018-2019 Road Salt Annual Purchase
History
In March, the Public Works Department received Board approval to renew our agreement with the Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS) for our annual purchase of road salt thru the State Joint Purchasing Program. Since that time, we have been advised that our contract with last year’s provider has been renewed with no increase in cost. The vendor will again be Compass Minerals America Inc. of Overland Park, Kansas, at a price of $43.41 per ton. This year, we are required to purchase a minimum of 3,360 tons of road salt for the 2018/19 winter season.
On October 15, 2018, this item was reviewed by the Public Works Committee and recommended for approval and referred to the Village Board of Trustees for consideration.
Financial Impact
Funds remain available in the Fiscal Year 2018 budget and will be requested in the Fiscal Year 2019 Budget, line item 010-5002-462600 for the purchase of salt.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve the purchase of road salt from Compass Minerals America Inc. of Overland Park, Kansas for the 2018-2019 winter season, for a cost not to exceed $43.41 per ton and a total cost not to exceed the remaining Fiscal Year 2018 budget and the Fiscal Year 2019 Board approved budgeted amount.
