09.b1 Staff Report Generator Payment
Staff Report
Date of Meeting: April, 18st 2023
To: City Council
From: Mike Hinz, Fire Chief
Re: Generator Payment
Background:
In the fall of 2021, the city was awarded a grant to install a backup generator at the fire station. The generator
will provide emergency power to both the fire station and public works facility. Both the fire chief and public
works director will be trained on the operation of the system. When the project was awarded, the city did not
have to supply a down payment due to the long delay in supplies. They have asked that the check be ready when
the project is done and approved by the fire chief and/or the public works director. There are some other costs
that will be allocated to the city portion like fire chief time.
Issue:
Should the city council approve payment for generator install on Fire/PW building?
Proposal Details:
Approve the payment, so that when the project is complete the vendor can be paid without having to wait until
the next city council meeting for approval.
Fiscal Impact:
This project in the CIP plan with a cost of 85,202 and of that $63,901.50 will be reimbursed through the grant
with a remaining city portion of $21,300.50.
Options:
(1) Approve payment of $73,775.00 To Allied Generators for generator installation.
Recommendation:
Option (1).
