TYPE ONE 14 FOOT AMBULANCE FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
UM, WE CAME TO THE BOARD IN APRIL TO ASK TO IDENTIFY FUND BALANCE TO PURCHASE AN AMBULANCE.
USUALLY, AS I'D MENTIONED BEFORE, WE PURCHASE ONE IN OCTOBER OF EVERY YEAR, WHICH YOU SEE WE HAVE ONE AGAIN IN THE NEXT BUDGET FOR OCTOBER.
UM, BECAUSE THE, UM, TIME CONSTRUCTION OF AMBULANCES IS PUSHED OUT FROM, WELL, THE 13 MINES OUT TO OVER TWO YEARS.
WE STARTED MOVING OUR, OUR PURCHASES UP A LITTLE BIT TO TRY TO STAY AHEAD OF THE GAME.
AND SO WE KIND OF SHIFTED EVERYTHING KIND OF SIX MONTHS BACK.
AND SO WE CAME TO THE BOARD IN APRIL, GET APPROVAL TO ORDER AN AMBULANCE.
UM, WE HAD LOOKED, ALL OF OUR AMBULANCES ARE DIESEL.
WE'VE HAD SOME ISSUES AND WE HAD BEEN DOING SOME RESEARCH AND UM, WE THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA TO, TO SWITCH OVER TO A GASOLINE POWERED AMBULANCE.
WE CAME TO THE BOARD, WE GOT APPROVAL TO IDENTIFY FUND BALANCE FOR AND THE AMOUNT OF 365.
360? YEAH, ABOUT 365,000 I MY GLASSES ON, BUT YEAH, 365 9 25.
UM, AFTER WE DID THAT AND BEFORE WE CAN GO TO, UM, CITY COUNCIL, UM, IN THE FOLLOWING MONTH TO GET APPROVAL FROM THEM, WE HAD, UH, RECEIVED SOME INFORMATION FROM SOME OTHER DEPARTMENTS THAT THESE GAS POWERED, UM, AMBULANCES WEREN'T DOING SO GOOD.
THEY WERE HAVING MORE TROUBLE THAN THE DIESEL.
SO WE DECIDED WE DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE ANY CHANCE.
AND SO WE DECIDED WE'RE GONNA GO BACK TO DIESEL.
THE DIESEL, UM, AMBULANCES ARE $15,500 MORE THAN THE GAS POWERED ONE.
SO WE'RE BACK TO THE BOARD TO IDENTIFY ANOTHER 15,500 TO PURCHASE THIS AMBULANCE.
AND SO THAT'S WHAT THIS REQUEST IS FOR, IS FOR IDENTIFYING FUND BALANCE FOR 15,500.
SO WE ORDER THE DIESEL AMBULANCE MOTION.
