9.f Discussion on proposals received for the purchase of pick-up truck to replace 2008 Ford Ranger
Staff Report
Date of Meeting: February 20th, 2018
To: City Council
From: Adam Hawkinson, Director of Public Works
Re: 2018 Ranger Pickup Replacement
Background:
The City of Scandia has an equipment replacement program to upgrade equipment and vehicles to ensure
the Public Works department can meet the needs of the community in a dependable, effective, and timely
manner. The Ranger pickup truck is now 10 years old. It was purchased for the building inspector to use in
the community for performing inspections. It has driven many short distance trips which is very hard on this
vehicle model. The Ranger pickup is 2WD which does not allow the truck to be used for multiple tasks in the
winter months. Though it is set up to pull a small trailer, it is not built to handle the towing, and the load
hauling capacity is minimal. Prices on 2500 series 4X4 pickups with club cabs increased as well as plow costs
which lead staff to consider a standard cab which provides additional opportunities for the council to
consider.
Issue
Staff is requesting a recommendation from City Council to approve the purchase of 2018 4x4 pickup
truck with a plow and emergency lights to replace the 2008 Ford Ranger. Staff is also recommending
City council to consider using the additional funds available to purchase a plow mount kit for the F550
to make it a full service snow removal vehicle.
Proposal Details:
Staff has received quotes through state bid process and from local dealerships. The quotes for the
pickups, the plow equipment, and lights are attached.
