CARENCRO UTILIZES LAMATS PURCHASING SERVICES FOR AN EQUIPMENT ACQUISITION

February 13, 2020 By GovCap

Carencro, LA (January 2020) – The City of Carencro announces the delivery of a new excavator for its utility department. The 2016 Gradall D-152 excavator provided by Scott Equipment represents a much needed addition to the fleet. The City selected the Louisiana Municipal Advisory and Technical Services Bureau (LaMATS) cooperative lease purchase program administered by Government Capital Corporation (GCC) as the most economical financing solution.

“The tax exempt lease purchase structured by Government Capital Corporation was the perfect solution. In addition to reduced interest cost compared to the lease offering provided by the equipment manufacturers, the process was quick, easy and enabled us to take delivery of the equipment on our schedule,” stated Mayor Glenn Brasseaux.

LaMATS Executive Director Cliff Palmer stated, “LaMATS continues to have complete confidence in Government Capital as our municipal finance partner. When a municipality is considering a lease-purchase of equipment, our cooperative program is a great option.”
