Ji <br />Elk River -== <br />Municipal Utilities <br />13069 Orono Parkway • P.O. Box 430 <br />Elk River, MN 55330-0430 <br />July 2, 2007 <br />To: Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission <br />Jerry Takle <br />Jerry Gumphrey <br />Jim Tralle <br />From: Bryan Adams <br />Subject: Bid Tabulation Electric Line Truck <br />Phone: 763.441.2020 <br />Fax: 763.441.8099 <br />At our June 2007 Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission meeting we discussed our vehicle <br />and construction replacement policy. <br />Our Unit #8 is a 1998 Freightliner with a Holan 42 aerial bucket, utilized on a daily basis by our <br />electric line crew. This unit is approaching 10 years old and due to be replaced. Although the <br />chassis is in fairly good shape, the aerial devise is showing its age and it is too short for the <br />current and future tasks it will be performing. <br />Bids have been secured for the replacement line truck and are reflected on the attached bid <br />tabulation. Due to the consolidation of the electric line truck manufacturers, only two <br />manufacturers of this equipment are left. Staff recommends award to the lowest responsive <br />bidder Dueco with trade-in. <br />
