Action Requested: Approve an amendment to the 2009 budget for the Equipment
Replacement Fund, to reflect the purchase of the chassis for Fire
Rescue 5179 replacement.
Deadline/Timeline: Payment for the truck chassis is on the list of vouchers for approval at
the November 17 meeting.
Background: • Replacement of Rescue 5179 Replacement (Capital Improvement
Program/CIP Project F-010) was initially planned for 2010.
• In August of 2009, the city became awaze of an opportunity to
purchase the chassis for this vehicle at a very favorable price, and
with features that would no longer be available if the city had
waited until 2010 to begin the project. The chassis was purchased
for$42,664.29 and delivered in October of 2009.
• At the November 3 Council meeting, the CIP was amended to
reflect the 2009 purchase of the chassis. The build-out of the
rescue truck on the chassis will be publicly bid in early 2010,
estimated at $177,336 (the balance of the$220,000 total estimate.)
Debt financing for the project will be secured in 2010.
Recommendation: I recommend that the Council approve the 2009 budget amendment,
increasing line item 406-48500-550 by$42,664.29
