Capital Improvement Project <br />2025 through 2029 <br />PROJECT # CW-103 <br />PROJECT NAME: SCBA Cascade Trailer (1) <br />Project Year: <br />2026 <br />Department: <br />Fire <br />Program: <br />Citywide <br />Project Type: <br />Other Equipment <br />Useful Life (Years): <br />10 <br />Contact Person: <br />Public Safety Director <br />Project Description: <br />This trailer can be brought to the scene of a fire to fill our SCBA's bottles on scene. This trailer is kept at Fire Station 1. <br />Fire Station 1 does not have a compressor so we use this trailer to keep the SCBA bottles at Station 1 filled. <br />Project Justification: <br />1 <br />We currently have an SCBA(Self-contained Breathing Apparatus)trailer. This trailer is located at Fire Station 1. It has five <br />large E cylinders that are connected by a manifold. We use this trailer to refill the SCBA bottles on all the fire apparatus at <br />Fire Station 1. Fire Station 1 does not have an SCBA compressor. To be able to refill these bottles without loading them <br />into a vehicle and driving to Station 2 to fill them saves time and is much safer. Transporting SCBA bottles in a motor <br />vehicle is dangerous. By having a trailer that is designed to move large tanks that are secure, is much safer. We <br />purchased this used trailer from the Virginia Fire Department. The trailer is home made and has been repaired over the <br />years. <br />Funding Sources FY2025 FY2026 FY2027 FY2028 FY2029 Total <br />Capital Equipment Replacement Fund $0 $20,900 $0 $0 $0 $20,900 <br />402 <br />Total $0 $20,900 $0 $0 $0 $20,900 <br />Expenditures FY2025 FY2026 FY2027 FY2028 FY2029 Total <br />Capital Equipment <br />Total <br />$0 <br />$0 <br />$20,900 <br />$0 <br />$0 <br />$0 I $20,900 <br />$20,900 <br />$0 <br />$0 <br />$0 <br />$20,900 <br />51 <br />
