specification compliance and determined that the contract would provide the best
product and pricing for meeting the needs of the City.
This purchase is for replacement of Unit 31316 in Public Works Utilities Department

upgrade in size to accommodate a larger crane needed to service and maintain pumps
and motors at treatment plants and lift stations. It will also provide a power unit that will
operate special tools and equipment needed to exercise valves and boring machines.
