(KMZA)--The Seneca Electrical Department will seek bids for a new bucket truck.

Department Superintendent Bruce Deters presented a list of specifications for the new truck to the City Council last week.

He said they are looking for a 41-foot 1 ½ ton truck with a Ford chassis.

Deters said they plan on the truck being their main truck, with the others as back-up. He said that would enable the department to have 2 crews working during and after storms.

The Council approved having Deters seek bids for the new truck and for leasing a truck.

The property is next to the Union Pacific tracks and there was a question about whether the property was the city's or belonged to the railroad. Brooks said Union Pacific agreed the property belonged to the city for their use.
