Subject:

Discussion and possible action to authorize the final lease payout and purchase for two (2) Caterpillar Backhoe Loaders - Model 416F2ST - Serial No. HWB01022 and HWB01023 from Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation in an amount not to exceed $66,720.00 as per Government Equipment lease Purchase Agreement Transaction No. 2954725 for operational use for the Road and Bridge Department and any other matters incident thereto. [Account #4100-9060-001-483003-220 Capital Lease Road and Bridge]

Issue: One of the leased backhoes requires a new engine. Webb County is responsible for the repairs of non-working lease equipment.

The Road and Bridge Department is also recommending the purchase of the second unit under this agreement for operational use.

Solution: Approve final lease payout to purchase two (2) backhoe loaders from Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation. Funding is available under the Capital Lease account under Road and Bridge.

Result: Investment to repair engine will remain with Webb County. Both Units will be utilized by Road and Bridge for county road improvements and maintenance.
