The proposed solution is a 70K-75K wheel loader with a 26-30’ snow blade, snow bucket and dirt bucket. This combination will provide the power needed to move the heavy snowfall the McCall area receives as well as relocate the snow from confined spaces. The dirt bucket is to remove compacted snow and ice which the snow bucket would not be strong enough to address. This project is on the city, state and FAA capital improvement plans as an alternate for FY16 funding. Due to other projects slipping to FY17 we are looking to execute procurement of the SRE this year. The Grant application must be received and approved to enable bidding NLT by mid-May to access FY 2016 funds.
