Manager—875-4820 <br /> The Fire Chief, Les Albert will be in attendance at the City Council meeting to answer <br /> any questions of the City Council on this item. <br /> BUDGET/TIME IMPLICATIONS: <br /> As indicated earlier, only a portion of the funds necessary to replace this truck ($331,600) <br /> have been transferred into the Equipment Replacement Fund, since the equipment <br /> replacement schedule called for the truck to be replaced in FY12. Therefore it is the <br /> recommendation of staff that the City borrow the money to buy the truck, and increase <br /> the transfer from the Fire Department into the Equipment Replacement Fund to make up <br /> the difference. <br /> A decision to purchase must be made as soon as possible in order to meet the deadline of <br /> purchasing the truck through the Northwest Municipal Conference. Failure to meet that <br /> deadline will increase the cost of the truck by approximately $59,000 and delay the <br /> delivery by about twelve months. <br />
