MEMO FROM CITY MECHANIC'�Lc�

This item is a requ st for authorization to proceed with repairs to our
backup pumper (3 1518
). During a routine inspection which was being
conducted by our fi eiighters, it was determined that the brakes on this
vehicle had gone ou This particular pumper is 27 years old. As was
mentioned several t mes in the annual and semi-annual reports of the fire
department, this ve icle should have been replaced a long time ago. We
will be seeing more repairs of this type on this vehicle, even though the
vehicle `is not used to a great extent due to its age and unreliability.
Repairs were referred to the City mechanic, however, we were informed that
repairs for the current problem, this time, would be above and beyond the
scope of our mechanic's ability. Dean Sandstrom researched the repairs
that would be necessary and has directed us to take the vehicle to Lakeland
Ford. There estima ed cost to repair the vehicle would-be $423.76 plus
tax.
