Springettsbury Township supervisors authorized two procurement items at the meeting: a 2026 John Deere tractor with snowblower and rotary broom, and a service contract for Turblex blowers used in the sewer system.
A supervisor moved to authorize the purchase of a 2026 John Deere model 15754 wheel-drive tractor, snowblower and rotary broom from Southern York Turf and Tractor under a PA CoStars contract for an amount not to exceed $56,984.27; a second was given and the board voted in favor.
On a related procurement, the board authorized engaging Iron Horse Environmental (CoStars 52887) for class 2 service and spare parts for five Turblex blowers in the shared sewer fund for an amount not to exceed $165,537.88. The mover described the item as included in the 2026 sewer budget; the motion was seconded and the board approved.
Why it matters: the tractor purchase is part of capital improvements and the Iron Horse engagement funds maintenance of critical sewer aeration equipment (Turblex blowers), which supports wastewater treatment processes.
What’s next: Staff will finalize purchase paperwork under the CoStars contracts and process payment from the appropriate budget lines (capital improvements for the tractor; shared sewer fund for the Turblex work).
