Mr. Dent Pierce
Monroe County Public Works
Dear Dent,
After our discussion regarding the county roller for sale located at Stock Island, we have
made a careful examination and find that the hydraulic system is completely inoperative
and will require a minimum of $8,500 to re -condition the system. 1 was unable to check
any moving parts for the condition of the engine.
I hereby offer $1,000 for this unit as -is. I would like to make you aware that hydraulic oil
is leaking from this unit and has caused a large deposit on the ground under the unit. .�h.�4-C' ` YA
Please advise if this unit is still for sale and the price is acceptable. rv� 1'ea-6 (no
Thank you for your courtesies in the past.
Sincerely,
