<br /> <br />ITEM 6.3. <br /> <br />'.yof TO: MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL <br />li:l ~ <br />IV FROM: RUSS ANDERSON, FIRE CHIEF <br /> DATE: JUNE 3, 1993 <br /> SUBJECT: FIRE DEPARTMENT RESCUE VAN <br /> <br /> <br />We received and opened bids on May 19 for an International <br />truck and all aluminum 15.6 foot modular body. We received a <br />total of five sealed bids on this unit (see attached copy of <br />bid proposals). Our Truck Committee has reviewed the bids and <br />taken a tour of the low bidder's facility (Cayel Craft in Rock <br />Rapids, Iowa) and feel they will meet our design and <br />performance requirements. They did, however, point out a few <br />additional cost changes we should consider. The Committee felt <br />these changes should be made: <br /> <br />1. Vertical exhaust system running up and between cab and box <br />less noise, fumes and odor (diesel) away from emergency <br />scene <br /> <br />2. Split entrance doors in back - better access, durability <br />over the years, clearance around vehicle <br /> <br />3. Chrome bumper in front - less maintenance, looks of unit, <br />pride and moral from department members. <br /> <br />I would like the Council's authorization to enter into a <br />contract with Cayel Craft to build this unit for our department. <br /> <br />Bid <br />Change Order <br /> <br />$126,234 <br />1,350 <br />$127,584 <br />($ 2,000) <br />$125,584 <br /> <br />Cash on Delivery <br />Balance Due <br /> <br />If there is any questions regarding this request, please call <br />me at the Fire station (441-4919) or at home (441-1464). <br /> <br />Our department has received the <br />commitment from different local <br />down on this unit: <br /> <br />following donations or a <br />clubs to help hold the cost <br /> <br />Communication Equipment - Eagles Club $4,838 <br />Hydraulic Power Unit (Electric) for Rescue <br />Tools - American Legion $3,500 <br />Electric Power Winch - V.F.W. $ 884 <br />2 Hand held Radios - Grant from Central Minnesota <br />Emergency Medical Services Council $ 550 <br />$9,772 <br /> <br />P.o.
