REQUEST: A resolution authorizing the payment of funds of a later fiscal year and of more than one fiscal year for one (1) D7 Bulldozer, one (1) D6 Bulldozer, and one (1) Boom Truck. B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): The Solid Waste Division requests authorization to finance the purchase of one (1) D7 Bulldozer, one (1) D6 Bulldozer, and one (1) Boom Truck through a 5 year lease agreement with purchase options. An additional D7 Bulldozer is needed to maintain operations at the West Hawaii Landfill. Bulldozers are used to cover the waste brought into the landfill on a daily basis as required by State Department of Health regulations. There is currently only one D8 bulldozer at this site and two bulldozers are needed to insure continued daily operations when repairs and maintenance are required. An additional D6 Bulldozer is needed for the sliver fill operations at the South Hilo Sanitary Landfill. The sliver fill operations require this smaller bulldozer due to the steeper slope of the landfill. This equipment is currently being rented. An additional Boom Truck is needed for the Kona Solid Waste Baseyard. This equipment will be used to safely move heavy items. 51GNED: i~~~""" DATE: ~ l~ ~ Department Head
