Description/Background:
Minersville is a small community in Beaver County with a population of less than 1,000 residents. They have attempted to budget for the purchase of a street sweeper for years but have been unable to fund the purchase of even a used one. They historically rent one for short periods to clean up after projects, but cannot maintain clean streets on a regular basis.
During a discussion with our Fleet Manager, Nathan Schafer, we determined that we have one (1) street sweeper that is under-utilized. I am requesting a reduction in fleet allocation of one (1) street sweeper taking us from five units to four units. The sweeper in question is a 2002 model year with about 50,000 miles.
Fiscal Impact:
We estimate the value of the street sweeper at approximately $10,000 based on what we believe it may return at auction.
