Kevin Miller of Fleet Management asked the committee to approve replacement engines for a Boston Whaler used by city operations, saying the hull remains in good condition but the engines have been recurring maintenance items. The committee approved the engine replacements.

Fleet also presented a resolution to declare a list of vehicles and equipment surplus for trade or disposal; staff said the items reached end of useful life and the resolution was approved.

Howard Miller (Fleet Management) proposed refurbishing an existing ambulance by installing a new chassis under the current box; he said that option would be approximately $100,000 cheaper than procuring a readily available replacement. The committee approved the special purchase to refurbish the ambulance.

Staff did not provide detailed export price schedules during the meeting but said the decisions are financially sound and will standardize chassis/boxes going forward.
