    Brief

    This opportunity involves supplying three backhoe loader vehicles to replace aging equipment. One unit is needed for Bereavement Services to replace a vehicle that has been out of service for over 12 months and is beyond economical repair at 17+ years old. Two additional units are required for Highways to replace vehicles that have reached the end of their serviceable life and are becoming increasingly unreliable. Suppliers should provide specifications, pricing, and delivery timelines for new or quality used backhoe loaders suitable for municipal operations.
