MADISON TOWNSHIP - The economic effect of the COVID pandemic likely will keep Madison Township from getting a new tractor and mower in time for this summer’s roadside mowing season.
Trustee Cathy Swank presented the news during Monday night’s regular trustees’ meeting.
The purchase has been on the back burner since fall when Swank said the township needed to buy a new boom mower for the road department by this spring because of continuing problems with the current mower. She said Monday she talked with road department foreman Jim Baker about the type of equipment needed and researched prices.
