Information
ACTION REQUEST
Authorize the remounting of one (1) medic unit modular on a new chassis from Frazer, LTD in keeping with the initial purchase strategy of re-mounting the modular units. Cost to remount the modular is $163,700.00 utilizing the HGAC Cooperative Purchasing Program.
BACKGROUND (Brief Summary)
Replacement chassis is approaching 9 years of age with over 245,000 miles on the unit and has catastrophic internal engine damage. Funds were approved in the FY 24-25 Fire Capital Equipment Replacement Fund and are available to fund this purchase.
RECOMMENDATION
The Fire Chief recommends replacement of the chassis at this time. At 9 years of age with over 245,000 miles and a bad motor, it is more cost-effective to replace the chassis now rather than replacing the motor and then request chassis replacement at 10 years of age as scheduled. The chassis has been purchased, and this request is for funding the remounting of the modular unit (patient compartment) on to the new chassis.
