EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
City Council Meeting: June 15, 2021
AGENDA ITEM: Expenditure Approval from Donation AGENDA SECTION:
Account for the Fire Department Consent
PREPARED BY: Rick Schroeder, Fire Department AGENDA NO. 6.i.
ATTACHMENTS: Quotes for Flir Camera Kits APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to approve the expenditure of funds from the
Rosemount Fire Department donation account to purchase 4 Thermal Imaging Camera kits.
BACKGROUND
The City Council is asked to consider the expenditure of $11,455.52 from the fire department donation
account for the purchase of 4 Thermal Imaging Camera Kits. The money for this purchase was made
possible from various donations to the Rosemount Fire Department over the past couple of years.
The purchase of these cameras will be utilized by firefighters to recognize heat sources and detect high
levels of heat as well as locate victims in fires. The purchase of these cameras will replace two of the
current outdated cameras as well as add two additional cameras to two additional fire apparatus. This will
make each responding front line apparatus more efficient and give the ability to have additional thermal
imaging cameras on scene at fires.
Attached are two quotes from two different fire equipment vendors. The first quote is from Jefferson Fire
and Safety in the amount of $11,455.52. The second quote is from Alex Air Apparatus in the amount of
$11,716.00. Both of these quotes were supplied to Rosemount Fire for the purchase of FLIR K33
Thermal Imaging Camera kits along with truck charging kits. The fire department obtained a third quote,
but the vendor had to withdraw their submission.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the purchase of the FLIR K33 Thermal Imaging kits from Jefferson Fire and Safety.
