Resolution 8278, Approving the Purchase of a 2015 Service Truck for the <br />Water Division of Public Works. <br /> <br />Public Works Supervisor Peterson explained he was seeking approval for the purchase of a 2015 <br />service truck for the water division of Public Works. He explained this vehicle would be used <br />for well buildings, water meters, watermain breaks, and valve repairs. He indicated this was a <br />budgeted expense for 2014. It was noted the current water division truck would be traded in. He <br />reported the expense for the new truck, box and air compressor was $62,234.32. Staff requested <br />the Council approve the purchase of the truck with a 5% contingency. <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause asked why an F350 was being recommended instead of the F250. <br />Public Works Supervisor Peterson indicated the F350 had better suspension and would better suit <br />the needs of the Public Works department. <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause questioned if the current water division truck had an air <br />compressor. Public Works Supervisor Peterson stated the current vehicle did not, but for safety <br />reasons, he was recommending this addition. <br /> <br />Council Member Mueller requested further information on the proposed super cab. Public <br />Works Supervisor Peterson commented Ford now offered a Super Cab and this would allow for <br />additional storage in the truck. <br /> <br />Mayor Flaherty inquired why staff was requesting a two-wheel drive truck. Public Works <br />Supervisor Peterson did not believe a four-wheel drive truck was necessary for the water <br />division. In addition, this would increase the expense of the vehicle another $4,000. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Meehlhause.
