There was an e-ror made in the amount budgeted for this item. In the 1984-85 budget an amount of only $8,170 was included for this item. At the time of budget preparation when our department was preparing the justification for this replacement, we were working with two figures, (1) the vendor's estimated price of $15,500, rind (2) he past maintenance expenditures for the existing chipper. Inadvertently the past maintenance figures were used as the budget request rather than the actual estimated cost of the chipper. We intended to budget for a drum type chipper which is several thousand dollars cheaper than the disc type chipper which the specifications were written around. It has recently been shown that the disc type chipper is far superior and much safer to operate than the drum type. Because of the safety factor alone, we feel that it is important to spend the extra amount and obtain the dist: type brush chipper. A special allocation in the amount of $6,000 will be submitted to the City Manager for the additional funds needed.
