RESOLUTION NO. 12807
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA AUTHORIZING COOPERATIVE PURCHASE
OF A FIRE PUMPER WITH THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES
AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS THEREFOR
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, at its meeting of February 2, 1985, the City
Council approved the establishment of an Equipment Replacement
Fund including a replacement schedule, and
WHEREAS, the replacement schedule for fire pumpers is 20
years as a front-line apparatus and 5 years as a reserve
apparatus, and
WHEREAS, Fire Engine 4 is a 1960 fire pumper which is
scheduled to be replaced in FY 1987-88, however, staff recommends
the cooperative purchase of a fire pumper with the City of Los
Angeles for the following reasons:
1. It takes 200 calendar days from the date the fire
pumper is ordered to assemble and deliver to the
City.
2. The fire pumper the City would cooperatively
purchase with the City of Los Angeles is the same
model and manufacturer as the pumper the City
purchased for $136,780 in 1985. This would assist
the City in standardizing fire apparatus. This is
an important fleet management objective from a
standpoint of reducing the different types of parts
required to be stocked and the training required by
Equipment Mechanics.
3. The Fire Department has indicated it is more than
satisfied with the fire pumper it purchased in 1985.
4. The price quoted to the City of Los Angeles is valid
only until December 31, 1986. The cost of
purchasing fire apparatus is increasing
approximately 4% annually. If the City waits to
purchase a fire pumper until FY 1987-88, the cost of
the pumper would escalate by approximately ~4,000
above the current price assuming the pumper was
ordered in July 1987.
~HEREAS, Seagrave Fire Apparatus, Inc. has extended a
written offer to the City to purchase a fire pumper via a
cooperative purchase arrangement with the City of Los Angeles at
a cost of ~145,573 (including sales tax).

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Chula Vista does authorize the cooperative purchase
of a fire pumper with the City of Los Angeles at a cost of
~145,573.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the sum of $145,573 is
hereby appropriated from the unappropriated General Fund Reserve
to be transferred to the Equipment Replacement Fund for said fire
pumper.
