• <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> Date: January 18, 1996 <br /> To: Mike Mornson, City Manager <br /> Jerry Faust, Councilmember <br /> From: Larry Hamer, Director of Public Works` r <br /> Re: City Mutual Aid & Equipment Exchange <br /> The City of St. Anthony has been in an equipment exchange program with the City of Columbia <br /> Heights and the City of New Brighton for over 20 years. <br /> • The exchange program was setup so every city did not have to purchase specialty equipment that <br /> was not used on a daily basis. If one city has several emergencies such as water break, sewer <br /> plugs, etc., we are there for each other. <br /> We also exchange parts and labor. Parts are replaced if used by another city and if a piece of <br /> equipment is specialized we send an operator when necessary. No money is exchanged with this <br /> program. <br /> There are no letters sent out it is all done on a low key basis. The program is beneficial to all <br /> concerned and is a money saver. <br /> The City also belongs to an equipment mutual aid called R.M.A.A. If any city needs help <br /> because of a disaster we would respond. <br /> Letters of thanks are good for public relations. <br /> • <br />
