However, General Safety Equipment's bid includes trade-in <br />value of $12,500, and is only $1,700 higher than the Custom bid. <br /> <br />It is felt the 1969 pumper could be sold for at least $20,000. If the bid <br />was awarded without a trade, the General bid is the lowest at $239,680. <br />If the pumper was sold for $20,000, the net cost is $219,680, a savings of <br />$5,800 over Custom's bid. If the City gets more than $14,200 for the <br />pumper, it is to our advantage to sell it ourselves. <br /> <br />The costs are included in the Five Year Plan and Annual Budget. The <br />purchase is exempt from the new sales tax, but if the tax had applied, it <br />would have added $15,600 to the cost. Delivery is expected Spring 1993. <br /> <br />The City's other two pumpers were purchased from General, and staff <br />spoke to other cities who have purchased similar pumpers and found them <br />to be pleased with the pumper's performance. <br /> <br />Larson said a resident whose home recently received major fire damage, <br />praised the efforts of the New Brighton Fire Department. <br /> <br />Motion by Gunderman, seconded by Rebelein, AWARD THE BID FOR A <br />NEW FIRE PUMPER TO GENERAL SAFETY EQUIPMENT FOR $239,680 <br />WHICH WILL NOT INCLUDE THE TRADE-IN OF THE 1969 PUMPER; AND <br />AUTHORIZE THE SALE OF THE 1969 PUMPER BY THE CITY AT SUCH <br />TIME AS THE NEW PUMPER IS DELIVERED. <br /> <br />4 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried. <br /> <br />Childs presented a proposal to retain a consultant to evaluate the Ramsey <br />County's proposal to upgrade Silver Lake Road. <br /> <br />Public Hearina <br /> <br />Storm Sewer <br />Improvement . <br />Oakwood Drive <br />Report 92.136 <br />Resolution 92-061 <br />Resolution 92-062 <br /> <br />Council Business <br /> <br />Purchase of Fire <br />Pumper Vehicle <br />Report 92-137 <br />Resolution 92-063 <br /> <br />Evaluation of Silver <br />Lake Road <br />Reconstruction <br />Report 92-138 <br />
