At their meeting Monday night, the Mt. Carmel City Council gave final approval to buying an Elgin street sweeper. The cost of the unit is $169,655 and is being financed through a local bank at 2.3% interest for 6 years. Motor fuel tax funds will be used to pay for the street sweeper. The unit it replaces was 33 years old.
The street sweeper was actually delivered to city hall Monday during the council meeting.
