a. a. Recommendation to approve the Purchase of a Replacement Breathing Air Compressor from Air One Equipment in the amount of $40,380.
Chief Schelstreet: This purchase is part of our recent replacement of our self-contained breathing apparatus. We did go out for quotes. Our current unit is 16 years old and past the end of life. We are recommending moving away from our current vendor. The new bid was significantly under and service will come from South Elgin instead of Southern Illinois.
Motion by Ald. Turner, second by Payleitner to recommend for approval the purchase of a replacement breathing air compressor from Air One Equipment in the amount of $40,380.
Voice Vote: Ayes: Unanimous; Nays: None. Chairman Bancroft did not vote as Chair.
Motion Carried.
a. Recommendation to approve the Special Fireworks Display for the Hotel Baker’s 90th Birthday Celebration.
Chief Schelstreet: As part of the Hotel Baker’s celebration the hotel has requested a permit for a fireworks display. This one is a bit unusual as it will be set off behind the Police Department.
The Fire Department has reviewed all of the documentation. The bond, and all of the requirements stated by the ordinance have been met. We believe this can be done safely. It is our recommendation that Council approves the permit.
Motion by Ald. Turner, second by Bessner to recommend approval of the Special Fireworks Display for the Hotel Baker’s 90th Birthday Celebration.
