THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Hamilton Township approved purchase of a Smartweight Elite wheel balancer, wheel lift, and accessories from Smith Garage Equipment for up to $13,877.16. The existing balancer at Public Works is over 20 years old and no longer operable, and the new equipment will handle dump trucks and fire trucks. This is a decided sale but signals ongoing fleet maintenance investments and potential needs for installation, training, calibration, and future shop equipment upgrades.
Cost shared equally among Police, Fire, and Public Works funds; ROI estimated at 2-3 years.
