Subject: Hastings Civic Arena Equipment
The Hastings Civic Arena’s floor scrubber and water softener are in need of replacement. The floor scrubber is
over ten years old and is due for replacement as part of the 2011 budget, but the arena manager feels this vital
piece of equipment may not last through the upcoming season. The replacement cost is approximately $7,000.
The water softener was installed in 1973 and has been repaired over the course of this time. Unfortunately, it is
believed the life of this water softener has finally reached its end. The replacement cost is approximately
$8,000.
I am seeking a recommendation from the PRC to utilize the savings of approximately $22,000 from the door
replacement project for the replacement of the floor scrubber and water softener. In return, the 2011 budget
would be reduced by $7,000 as we would eliminate the budget line item for the floor scrubber.
Thank you!
