Title
Dump Body Replacement - Proposal
History
The Vehicles and Equipment Division of Public Works has a Board approved budget line item in the 2006/07 Fiscal Year Budget for the purchase a replacement for the Henderson Dump Body that is mounted on a 1997 Ford LN8000 Cab and Chassis with 32,500 miles. Replacement of the dump body is due to rust perforation.
Auto Truck Group of Bensenville, Illinois, submitted a proposal for $7,672 (copy attached) for the replacement of the old Henderson Dump Body with a new identical Henderson Mark Two Dump Body. Auto Truck Group will be able to reuse the subframe and hydraulic hoist.
Auto Truck Group is the sole distributor in our area for Henderson Truck equipment. They have built trucks for the Village in the past and we are satisfied with them as a vendor.
