MEMO TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL
SUBJECT: STATUS OF 1969 INTERNATIONAL STEP VAN
DATE: AUGUST 13, 1987
Attached, please find a memo from Fire Chief Ken Kuchera regarding the con-
version of the existing fire/rescue truck from a code 3 to a code 1 vehicle.
After reviewing the proposal, I would recommend against the action.
While the City would be, in effect, obtaining another vehicle at no cost, I
have concerns about repairs and maintenance necessary to keep the vehicle in
operation. Problems were noted during the deliberations over the new truck.
The conversion or retention of vehicles scheduled for replacement was noted as
a concern of mine in the CIP report.

TO: Larry Thompson, City Administrator
FROM: Ken Kuchera, Fire Chief
SUBJECT: Future Status of 1969 International Metro Step Van
The Fire/Rescue truck committee visited the Custom Fire Manufacturing
Facility yesterday evening. Progress on our new unit is moving along
rapidly and the committee was very impressed with the quality work-
manship. Delivery of the new unit is scheduled for the first week in
September.
As explained previously, the equipment in the existing unit will be
placed in the new unit. Mechanically, our existing unit needs major
repair if we are going to maintain it as a Code 3 response (red lights
and siren) vehicle. I would estimate the truck if sold, to be worth
approximately $1000 .00. As a Code 1 response (no red lights or
sirens, no hurry) unit, it could be utilized for a number of func-
tions. Salvage and overhaul equipment and supplies could be stored
and transported and a compressed air cascade supply system could be
mounted and transported. This would allow us to fill our existing
Scott Air Pack bottles at the scene rather than transporting to the
station and back to the scene. Miscellaneous equipment, which is not
used on a routine basis such as rakes, shovels, pitch forks, and
brooms could also be stored in the unit. I can also see the unit
being useful to transport our Explorer Post personnel if they are
needed for assistance. This again would be a routine Code 1 response.
This unit would not respond unless needed and requested.
I plan on placing this issue on the Council Agenda for further
discussion at the August 17 meeting.
