Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the City Manager to issue a Purchase Order to Siddons-Martin Emergency Group, LLC for the purchase of fire trucks
Body
With this purchase order we will purchase a one-time purchase with Siddon-Martin Emergency Group for two fire trucks.
As part of our normal Fire Apparatus replacement asset #130015 and 140022, both 10 plus year vehicles, became eligible for replacement. In early 2022 we started the building process by contacting Siddon-Martin in order to get these vehicles on a build schedule and start the 24 - 36 month build. Pending the approval of Council, these vehicles could potentially arrive by the end of the year. One of these vehicles will be a Foam pumper and the other will be a pumper Appuratus. By placing the order two years ago we were able to get significant cost savings, a multi-vehicle savings and they will be giving us a $60,000 trade in of one of our replacement vehicles.
This contract was established through a competitively solicited cooperative process.
Cost: $1,968,568.00
Source of Funds: Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Funds
