I respectfully request the Town Board Authorize the Town Grant Writer to apply for a NYSDEC
Recycling Equipment Grant. We have two Trucks that are eligible for a 50% reimbursement grant.
They would be replacing two existing trucks that previously were funded out of the same grant
program.

Both vehicles are scheduled to be purchased in 2028 within the Town Highway Department 10-year
plan. Because this grant program takes 3-4 years to reimburse the 50% match it is good to apply as
eatly as possible.

I have attached some estimates for the two trucks. These are budget estimates only for the grant and
will need to be updated when the Town purchases the trucks.

New 33K GVW  cab & chassis with swap-loader Hook lift installed: $227,000

New 1 Ton Dual Wheel Truck Cab with 11’ Dump Box installed: $84,305

Sincerely,

David M. Gunner
 Superintendent of Highways
