Subject: Resolution 2014 -56 Purchase of Snow Removal Equipment
This memo is in support of the above resolution awarding the purchase of the new
Oshkosh plow truck with attachments to Oshkosh.
The FAA recommended and approved the procurement process for joint purchasing
under Agreement #102811 -OKC between the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA)
and Oshkosh.
The Airport had already determined the specifications for this equipment and was ready
to move forward with the purchase when grant funds became available.
This purchase will replace a worn out 1995 Oshkosh Plow Truck and provide a vital new
piece of equipment that plows, scrapes, deices, and sands.
