In addition to many other actions, the Chandler City Council will be tasked with some tough decisions this week on utilities, vehicle purchases, a major parks contract and one for the rebuild of water treatment facilities.
The vehicle purchases alone will seem high-priced to some, though those aren’t nearly the most expensive items on the agendas.
Three vehicle purchases on the 6 p.m. Monday, Oct. 12 study session are for the city’s transportation division. A bucket truck is priced at about $220,000; a dump truck is about $218,000 and a water truck is about $175,000.
