• MEMORANDUM <br /> DATE: June 21, 1999 <br /> TO: Mike Mornson, City Manager <br /> FROM: Jay Hartman, Public Works Director <br /> RE: Purchase of 30ORW Back-up Generator/Portable Fuel Tank for City <br /> Hall Building <br /> I have received a price quote for the purchase of a 30OKW back-up generator. <br /> Cummings North Central Inc. submitted a quote to duplicate our existing Onan trailer <br /> mount generator. <br /> Purchasing an additional generator will give us the ability to not only power-up the City <br /> Hall building for the Y2K scenario but also provide the Public Works staff with <br /> • additional back-up capabilities for running lift stations and pump houses during seasonal <br /> power outages. The quotation from Cummings North Central has a purchase price of <br /> $60,000.00. Due to the cost this purchase would have to be bid out. Delivery is <br /> estimated at 60 to 75 days. <br /> Propane Tank <br /> Suburban Propane has submitted a proposal for the rental of a 1,000 gallon propane tank <br /> and gas vaporizer for the upcoming Y2K event. The tank will provide enough back-up <br /> fuel to run one bank of boilers (3) for approximately one week. The rental cost of <br /> equipment is $2,500.00. Delivery of the tank and equipment would be in September, <br /> removal of equipment in February 2000. Additional cost to change out to the boiler <br /> system to run on propane should not exceed$1,000.00. <br /> • <br />
