Stuttgart City Council approved the purchase of three new vehicles for the water department at last night’s meeting.
The topic of new vehicles took center stage at the regular Stuttgart City Council meeting Tuesday, Jan. 19. All aldermen were present at the meeting. Interim mayor Becky Burgess presided over the meeting.
The council voted to approve the purchase of three 2021 Ford F-150 trucks for the water department. The trucks will be purchased through a government buying program at the cost of $23,117 each. The council unanimously approved Ordinance 1971, which gives the water department permission to purchase the three trucks but doesn’t appropriate any funds for the purchase.
