Agenda Item Summary:
Request to authorize staff to purchase a fire suppression truck from Transource in the amount of $89,551.00. The 4,000-gallon water suppression system and components are all new on a pre-owned chassis. The unit is available for delivery now with substantial savings in both cost and lead time compared to purchasing an equivalent new truck with the same new water suppression system. The new purchase price was quoted at $302,264.00 minus a customer discount of $69,964.00 for a total of $232,300.00 and is estimated in late 2025 for delivery. The purchase is intended to replace the current 1200-gallon tank water truck which is 46 years old and has exceeded its useful life for the Solid Waste Division. Asset M986: 1978 IHC with a 1200-gallon tank VIN: D1022HCA26593 is to be declared surplus.
