Called the $152,596 boiler price outrageous for a one-for-one swap and suggested heat pumps, DTE programs, and IRS grants instead.

A frequent library patron who wants the boiler replaced so the library stays open and comfortable in winter; supported approval despite the higher price.

Said comparable boiler brands cost 25% less than the specified Lochinvar and urged council to reject the rubber-stamped no-bid contract.

Seconded the call for competitive bidding on the boiler, noting governments use cooperative agreements with volume expectations.
