CEMENT SILO PURCHASE

City Administrator Hanson stated this is the last piece of the cement truck that was included in the budget. This will allow the purchase of the powdered cement in bulk which will be much more efficient. 

Mayor Pogue asked how long before the City sees payback for these purchases. Streets Superintendant Jim Link stated it will be about three years before it pays for itself.

Alderman Terbrock asked if it was the belt that wears out the fastest on the truck. Mr. Link stated it was and that replacement of the belt is fairly easy.

Alderman Terbrock stated his concerns of how the silo would be anchored to the ground. He asked that the bolts be tied into the rebar in the footings. Mr. Link stated they would be looking into it.

Alderman Roach asked if no bid was required because this was a single source proprietary system. Mr. Link stated that was correct.
