Village of St. Johnsville Announces New DPW truck at no Cost to the Village
The Village of St. Johnsville is pleased to announce the addition of a new truck equipped with a plow and utility boxes to the DPW Fleet. This is a long-awaited addition and represents an important step in improving the equipment available to our crews as they work to maintain village streets and serve our residents throughout the years.
The new truck will provide the DPW with additional capabilities for snow removal, road maintenance, and other essential municipal service. The utility boxes will also provide valuable storage for the tools and equipment needed to perform daily maintenance and respond to the changing needs in our community. This addition is particularly significant given the age of the Village's existing fleet. Prior to the arrival of this truck the newest truck was purchased in 2019. A list of current vehicles is as follows:
1984 Utility Van1990 Dump Truck1991 bucket Truck, (out of service)1999 F-5502005 Sewer truck2014 F-3502014 F-5502019-F 550
These vehicles are antiquated and have high mileage and should all be eventually replaced. Our DPW works extremely hard on a daily basis to keep our village running, and having the proper equipment is paramount to our crew in order to keep them safe.
This vehicle was purchased by the DPW Supervisor Billy Viccarreli. He was able to acquire the necessary funding through the CHIPS grant, allowing the purchase to go through without costing the village a cent.
Thank you!
