Westland Beefs Up Snow-Fleet

Westland, MI - Residents will soon see five new 2015 F-350 multipurpose trucks hitting the streets in Westland. 

 

During Monday's City Council meeting, members approved the purchase of the five trucks from Westland-based North Brothers Ford, which will be used for park and city property maintenance, as well as year round road maintenance. During the winter months, they will be outfitted with snow plows and salt spreaders.


"Each year, we look for ways to deliver improved services to taxpayers," said Mayor William Wild. "The purchase of these smaller trucks will allow us to more effectively plow and salt neighborhood streets which proved to be challenging with the  record breaking snowfall received in 2014."
