REQUEST FOR CONSIDERATION
COMMITTEE CONSIDERATION: PW & Utility Committee
ITEM DESCRIPTION: Discussion and necessary action on purchasing locks that are keyed the
same for grinder pumps and pump control panels.
PREPARED BY: Joe DeStefano Jr.
REPORT DATE: 8-9-2023
RECOMMENDATION: Purchase locks from the best quoted price. I will have quotes with
me at the meeting.
EXPLANATION:
After last month’s meeting, we decided to purchase keyed alike locks for grinder pump
lids and control panels. It took a little bit to confirm a lock that would work for everything.
But I have come to a Master Lock that will work. I am actively receiving quotes and
should have three at the time of the meeting.
Respectfully submitted,
Joe DeStefano Jr.
