Title

Consider a resolution authorizing the City Manager to issue a Purchase Order to Siddons-Martin Emergency Group, LLC for the purchase of a velocity PUC Pumper Truck.

Body

The approved FY-18 New Program (Squad 3 upgrade to Engine 3) adds an Engine Company to Fire Station 3 to address response needs in that district. District 3 is in the southwest area of Round Rock, and is one of the cities busiest districts; it is located near two major road ways, Tollway 45 and IH 35. Due to roadways, residential and commercial businesses, and high call volume there is a significant need for an Engine Company in this area. The location of this district, and the areas infrastructures (large commercial structures, multistory structures, and two major roadways (Tollway 45 and IH 35), a Quint and Engine are needed to fulfill its primary responsibility of providing fire and emergency services to our citizens. The purchase of the Velocity PUC Pumper Truck will allow for an increase in water flow during structure fires and addition equipment to be carried for motor vehicle accidents.
