Council declares two fire/brush trucks surplus; replacement timing to wait for new vehicles
Summary
Council approved declaring two fire and brush trucks surplus but discussed keeping the vehicles in service until their replacements arrive and noted a cost advantage to replacing both simultaneously.
The council declared two fire/brush vehicles surplus under Resolution 25-14 and discussed the practical timing of disposal. Staff explained surplus declaration allows the city to begin replacement work but the existing vehicles will remain in service until new trucks are received; a council member noted there is a discount when both vehicles are replaced at the same time.
Council members asked about timing and the process for disposal; staff said the vehicles will not be disposed of until replacements are ordered and in hand, and that the replacement timeline depends on procurement and delivery schedules.
