/ITEM TITLE A resolution authorizing the purchase of two trucks for the Wastewater Division of
Public Works at an estimated combined cost of $55,000 from Wastewater Automotive Equipment

EXPLANATION
The Wastewater Division of Public Works is requesting to purchase two vehicles. One vehicle is to
replace a 12-year old Ford F-350 crew truck used for daily maintenance, construction and emergency
responses. The truck is a 1992 with a service body, lift gate, generator, pipe rack and other
miscellaneous tools and confined space equipment mounted on it. Due to the age, condition and
inadequate braking system, we believe it is no longer safe to operate. Ford Company has now gone to a
larger four-wheel disc braking system on their F-350 trucks and is adequate for this purchase.
The second truck will be used by the newly created position of the NPDES Stormwater Inspector. It is
recommended that the truck be a Ford Ranger type pickup with an extended cab and a toolbox to
facilitate inspection activities.
