2. OTHER BUSINESS
a. AR-2015-975 Addition of a Transport Rescue Unit
City Manager Barlow made a staff presentation discussing: the purchase of the unit prior to July 1, 2015
providing the City significant savings due to changes made by the Legislature to adhere to new industry
requirements;putting a second transport vehicle on the street would increase the City's level of service to
the community; and that the City would receive reimbursement revenue greater than the purchase price
and overall operational costs of the unit.
The Council and staff discussed the age of the two transport vehicles that are currently in service;
reduced services provided when one (1) vehicle is down for service; keeping the older unit as a reserve;
some of the transport vehicle industry changes that are occurring effective July 1, 2015, which will drive
up the costs of a new unit; and although the new vehicle is being purchased before July 1, 2015, it will
still be in compliance with the new industry requirements.
A motion was made by Councilman Conroy, second by Councilwoman Power to approve the
purchase of an additional Transport Rescue Unit in an amount not to exceed $248,310 and
authorize the City Manager to enter into a capital lease per the Purchasing Policy and
approve the associated budget amendments. The MOTION was APPROVED by the following
vote:
Yes: 5- Mayor Ignasiak,Councilwoman Power,Councilwoman Bennington,Councilman Blazi and
Councilman Conroy
