The addition of a heavy duty snowplow is increasing the cost of a new dump truck for the Kane borough streets department.

The Kane Borough Council voted 6-1 Monday to add a different snowplow to the truck purchase, which was approved last month by the same vote. Council President Howard Kane, Councilwoman Janet Bard and Councilmen Yogi Osmer, Dennis Drost, Mike Merry and Jim Salvamoser voted in favor of adding the heavy duty snowplow to the truck. Councilman John Gentilman cast the lone negative vote. In opposing the truck purchase, he said he believes the vehicle is “too big for our community.”
