Report # 88 -Special Public Safety Committee Aerial Ladder Truck
The Committee respectfully submits the following:
A special meeting of the Public Safety Committee was held on Wednesday, November
lOth, 1982 at 7:35 p.m. in the Administrative Centre.
Present Were: Councillor L. Ostick, Councillor E. Stoddart and Councillor J.
Ochalski.
The following matter was discussed:
1. Option 1 Rebuild Aerial Hydraulic System.
Install new 85' Ladder. $ 35,157.80
Option 2 Option 1 plus new cab and paint
work. $ 83,802.80
Option 3 Re-built Truck. $148,000.00
All these prices are in American dollars and are subject to exchange of 20%
plus Duty of 14% and Federal Tax of 9%.
Any of these options produce a fire truck without a pump. Pumper Number 3 is a
1951 model with a pump considered too small by today's standards and will
shortly require replacing. This is confirmed by the Fire Marsh•l 's report of
two (2) years ago which was done at the Town's request.
2. It is recommended that a new Aerial Ladder with a pump be tendered for.
3. This would give us one (1) new vehicle to meet our requirements for a few years
and would have a life of at least 20 years.
Option 1 and 2 will still leave the Department with basically an old old
"blister".
