REPORT ITEMS 13.1 REPORT - AUTHORIZATION TO PURCHASE AND FINANCE A REPLACEMENT TRACTOR DRAWN AERIAL LADDER TRUCK BACKGROUND: The City’s Fire Department has identified a need for a new fire truck to replace a 27 year old existing Tractor Drawn Aerial (TDA) ladder truck. The current TDA ladder truck has outlived its standard useful life of 15 years. In addition, the current TDA ladder truck has a two stroke diesel engine which is considered a gross polluter by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. In order to maintain and operate the current ladder truck, the department is incurring large repair costs and down time which are causing operational issues for the department. The replacement ladder truck has a cost estimated at $1.1 million. Due to financial constraints on making the payment upfront, the cost is anticipated to be financed over a 7-year term. In late 2014, the City received a cost proposal from Pierce Manufacturing Co. indicating a price of $1,022,636.12 for the new ladder truck. The City’s financial advisor, Public Financial Management (“PFM”), contacted several banks for proposals for a financing of this size. The most favorable proposal was submitted by Wells Fargo at a proposed borrowing rate of 1.78%. City of Santa Rosa Regular Meeting Agenda and Summary Report Page 8 of 11 CITY COUNCIL MAY 12, 2015 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Finance and Fire Departments that the Council, by resolution: (1) authorize the purchase of a Tractor Drawn Aerial ladder truck (2) authorize lease financing in an amount not to exceed $1,100,000 and (3) approve, authorize and direct the execution of related documents and all acts and things necessary or proper for carrying out the transaction by the City Manager, Chief Financial Officer or their respective delegates and actions with respect thereto.
