I. New Business

Chief Schelstreet: Thank you for entertaining this new business item. The Fire Department operates a 1997 Ariel Ladder Truck as part of the fleet. During a routine maintenance service check the oil came back with high levels of copper. This indicates a main bearing failure. We discussed the future of the apparatus with the Fleet and Finance Departments. It has 4 more years on its service life. We explored several different options, and the decision was to have a rebuilt motor put into the apparatus so that it meets its 4 year service life and we can expect to have a return on our investment once it’s sold. If we try to sell the truck with a failed motor we’ll most likely get scrap value. Both the Fleet and Finance Departments agreed. I would like to request approval of installation of a rebuilt motor.

A. Motion by Ald. Bancroft, second by Lemke to approve the Quote for Motor Repairs on Fire Department Ladder Truck 102 from Interstate Power Systems in the Amount of $45,680.39.
