The City’s equipment replacement schedule for this type of <br />truck is normally every 10 years, however, staff has extended the replacement of the Mack plow <br />trucks to 12 years, or more in some cases, because the trucks have proven to be more dependable <br />than other makes purchased in the past. Truck #204-14 is a Mack tandem axle plow/dump truck <br />that was purchased in 2013. Public Works staff requested to replace truck #204-14 with a truck <br />similar to the current Mack trucks that the City has purchased over the past twelve years. The <br />existing truck #204-14 would be kept as a back-up plow truck for the next two years. In two <br />years, when truck #205-15 is replaced, staff will then trade in or auction truck #204-14 and then <br />move truck #205-15 into the back-up role. Adoption of the Consent Agenda approved the <br />replacement of the 2014 Mack with the purchase of a 2026 Mack chassis equipped with the <br />snowplow options at a total cost of $409,873.72. <br />
