Mr. Shepherd said that this is an annual ordinance. The city has had a good experience participating in the ODOT Salt Purchasing Cooperative.

Mr. Shepherd explained that the city needs to buy a maximum of 110% of 4,200 tons and a minimum of 90% of 4,200 tons. The city has 800 tons of salt left in the salt barn and the average usage is between 4,000–4,500 tons.
