SUBJ: Light Truck Purchases
DATE: December 14, 2005
Introduction
Council is requested to authorize the purchase of three light
trucks as provided in the 2006 budget.
Background
The 2006 budget contains $60,000.00 for a one-ton 4x4 grass rig
for the Fire Department, $35,000.00 for a one-ton 4x4 pickup for
the Sewer Department and $19,000 for a compact pickup for the
Engineering/Inspection Department. Addressed in this memo is only
the purchase of the trucks, not including sales tax, fees,
delivery or attachments such as a grass pak ($25,000 est.), Lt Bar
(1,800), Graphics ($500) , or snowplow ($4,000). Funds are
allocated in the Internal Service Fund and the Sewer fund for
these purchases. The first truck for the Fire Department would
replace a 1990 Ford that will be passed down to the Street
Department. The second truck will be an addition to the fleet.
Staff is requesting the purchase of a %-ton 4x4 as a Chief's rig
for the Fire Department in place of the compact pickup for the
Engineering/Inspection Department. A 2000 Ford Ranger would then
be passed down to the Inspection Department.

shown below. Options listed are as requested by the department
and are at manufacturer-to-dealer invoice pricing.
