Agenda Item: 5.g)
City Council Agenda Report
City of Scandia
14727 209`�' St. North
Scandia, MN 55073 (651) 433-2274
Action Requested: Consider the purchase of a Hotsy Power Washer System and the
installation by Innovative Shop Services.
Deadline/ Timeline: N/A
Background: • A power washer was included in the 2013 budget, but due to a
surplus, it was moved up to 2012.
• The budget has been amended to allow for the purchase.
• The power washer is equipped with hot water and soap dispensing
capabilities that will allow for a more thorough cleaning.
• Some of the cost is due to the installation of the unit and equipping
the building to allow for a wash bay.
, • A power washer and wash bay will allow for quicker and
improved washings.
• A power washing system will help prolong vehicle and equipment
life by removing salt and dirt.
Recommendation: I recommend the Council put the purchase and installation of a Hotsy
Power Washer on the November 20, 2012 Consent Agenda.
