City Council approves amendment raising price for new fire engine by $25,300
The Imperial City Council voted to amend Resolution 2025-DEBT-46 on Wednesday to reflect a $25,300 increase in the purchase price of a 2024 Harris fire engine. The motion passed 3-0. Victor Manrique, who presented the item, said the increase stems from the council purchasing a unit that is already built and has features not included in the price and paperwork prepared for a model scheduled for delivery in three years. “So it is a price increase of $25,300 over 10 years,” Manrique said. Council members did not request changes to the item during discussion. The council approved the amendment by voice vote; the clerk recorded the result as "Motion carries 3-0." The council and staff did not identify any additional financial offsets during the meeting. According to the presentation, the discrepancy resulted from a miscommunication about which unit the previously prepared pricing documentation covered. The council did not direct additional study or seek further bids; the item was approved as presented and staff will finalize the procurement paperwork.
