Cass <br />County Highway Department Heavy Equipment Budget Adjustment The 2024 Budget included $570,000 for heavy equipment purchases. We bid out 2 plow trucks <br />on September 30, 2021, but these trucks were delayed due to material delays and production <br />problems. The two trucks have recently been delivered to our truck vendor and are now awaiting the truck builds to make them utilizable as plow trucks. We are also awaiting a 550 chassis truck and service boxes for our maintenance crew. <br />Therefore, we respectfully request to increase the 2024 budget by $610,150 and to decrease in <br />the 2023 budget by that same amount to adjust for these carryover expenses. This would change the heavy equipment budget line item 211-4001-431-7415 from $570,000 to $1,180,150.00 for 2024. <br /> SUGGESTED MOTION: Move to approve 2024 budget adjustment by increasing the Heavy Equipment line item 211-4001-431-74.15 by $610,150 from $570,000 to $1,180,150.00 and reduce the 2023 budget by $610,150. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />J:\Admin-Eng\Commission Corrsp\2024 Commission Correspondence\Heavy Equipment\Commission Agenda - Budget Adjustment for Heavy Equipment.docx
