Loader."

DISCUSSION
Annually, the City considers replacement of equipment that has reached its average life
expectancy and is showing signs of needing major maintenance. It has been the City's
practice to replace this equipment before major repairs are required. The equipment needing
to be replaced is used extensively and has to be reliable to maintain appropriate City
services.
