Central Lakes Fire Department <br />7562 Murphy Lake Rd <br />Eleveth, MN. 55734 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Lino Lakes Public Safety Department February 8, 2018 <br />Attn: Director John Swenson <br />640 Town Center Parkway <br />Lino Lakes, MN 55115 <br /> <br /> <br />Public Safety Director Swenson, <br /> <br />On behalf of the Central Lakes Fire Department, I would like to offer you $30,000.00 for the 1995 Ford <br />L8000 fire engine you have listed for sale. This offer is contingent upon the testing and certification of <br />the fire pump. <br /> <br />Central Lakes Fire Department became aware of the engine you have for sale through the Ellsburg <br />Volunteer Fire Department. As you know, Ellsburg purchased a fire engine from Lino Lakes in July of <br />2017. <br /> <br />The Central Lakes Fire Department provides fire and rescue services to 36 square mile area out of two <br />fire stations. This engine would replace 1981 Seagrave Pumper, which we are not able to get parts for <br />any longer nor are we able to get the fire pump certified. As you know this is critical safety concern for <br />our staff and community. <br /> <br />The purchase of the 1995 Ford L8000 fire engine would also enhance our department’s interoperability <br />with the Ellsburg Volunteer Fire Department. As mutual aid partners and neighboring jurisdictions in a <br />rural setting the ability to have the same fire engine is vitally important. <br /> <br />Thank you for considering this offer. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br />Jason Doughty <br />Fire Chief <br />
