JANONIS, VILLAGE MANAGER V8/11q I-{, -0 r -- I-=>~ FROM: FIRE CHIEF DATE: DECEMBER 30, 2008 SUBJECT: TOWER LADDER REPLACEMENT The Fire Department is scheduled to replace a 1994 Pierce tower ladder in 2009. This vehicle has over 60,000 miles and its current condition and market value warrant replacement. Backaround Since the current tower ladder is the first ever operated by the fire department the replacement of this apparatus underwent a thorough investigation. Before I explain the investigation and ultimate findings let me first explain how the tower ladder is used and the difference between a ladder truck, quint, snorkel and tower ladder. A "truck" is generic for a ladder truck, quint, snorkel or tower ladder. A truck differs from an engine, which is used primarily to extinguish fires. While a truck may be used to extinguish a fire it has a completely different purpose on the fire scene. Truck crews force entry, perform ventilation and salvage and overhaul while engine crews advance hose and put the "wet stuff on the red stuff." In order to accomplish these tasks the truck carries several types of ventilation fans, forcible entry tools and a large complement of ladders, salvage covers, pike poles and saws to cut through almost any building material. The term used to describe a "truck" can be very confusing. The following will describe the difference between each of these apparatus. Also included are pictures of the different types of trucks referred to in this document as Exhibits. Ladder Truck A ladder truck is a specialized apparatus that carries a main ladder (usually 75' or 100') and a complement of ground ladders. It does not have a pump, water tank or fire hose. This is the type of apparatus the department had prior to the current tower ladder. See Exhibit A. Snorkel Prior to the ladder truck we had until 1994 our department had a snorkel. A snorkel has an articulating boom with a basket on the end. These types of vehicles are commonly T ower Ladder Replacement December 30, 2008 Page 2 used in the utility industry, but have very limited fire service use today. The snorkel was equipped with a pump, but did not have hose or a water tank. See Exhibit B. Quint & Tower Ladder A quint and a tower ladder are essentially the same. To be classified as a "quint" the apparatus must have the following five (5) components: main ladder, pump, hose, water tank and ground ladders. Each of the components has minimum requirements as to size and/or quantity. A tower ladder has each of the above components in addition to a basket at the end of the main ladder. See Exhibit C. As you are aware we called our tower ladder a quint for several years until it was agreed upon to standardize the terminology through Northwest Central Dispatch in 2004. The term tower ladder is now used exclusively by area departments. Which "Truck" Is Riqht for Us? As described above truck work needs to be performed at every fire incident. The manner in which we decide to carry the personnel and equipment however, is a local decision. We have had experience with a snorkel, ladder truck and tower ladder in the last 40 years. The department researched different options at several levels. We conducted discussions at every level of the department: firefighters, officers, mechanics and administrative personnel. These discussions and how we operate our apparatus are under constant review. The easiest apparatus type to eliminate is the snorkel. Snorkels are inefficient when it comes to operating at the fire scene. Since they do not have a main ladder they are limited in the number of people they can move efficiently. The lack of a main ladder makes them less versatile. The final reason not to recommend a snorkel is their excessive cost because they are a specialized apparatus. The decision for us came down to a ladder truck or a tower ladder. Compare the following features of each apparatus: Truck Components Main ladder Ground ladders Tower Ladder Components Main ladder Ground ladders Fire pump Fire hose Water tank T ower Ladder Replacement December 30, 2008 Page 3 As you can see the tower ladder has many more components than the ladder truck. The ladder truck is a specialized apparatus that can only perform truck work. The tower ladder has all the necessary components to perform truck work and has a water tank, hose and pump like an engine. These extra components make the tower ladder a much more versatile piece of apparatus. If necessary the tower can respond to fires when an engine isn't available or has to travel from a great distance. Since we placed our current tower ladder in service we have been able to reduce the number of reserve engines. One of the reduced engines was specifically due to having a tower ladder. The department currently operates three (3) front line engines and 1 reserve. Reserves are necessary to replace front line apparatus due to routine and prolonged repairs. Currently, if an engine is taken out of service for maintenance, the reserve engine is put in its place. If a second engine is taken out of service the engine crew at Station 13 (downtown) is combined with the truck crew and the tower ladder operates as both an engine and a truck at the fire scene. This is not an ideal situation, but is acceptable on a very limited basis. If the department were to return to operating with a ladder truck instead of tower ladder I would recommend the purchase of one additional engine with associated equipment at a cost of $550,000. A ladder truck is approximately $350,000 less than a tower, but the added cost of an engine and subsequent maintenance make the ladder truck a much more expensive option. Apparatus Recommendation Since the tower ladder is a more versatile apparatus and is cost effective in regards to the impact on reserve apparatus, I recommend the replacement of the current tower ladder with another tower ladder. Purchase Back~round Since there are many area fire departments considering the purchase of apparatus, a committee was formed through the Northwest Municipal Conference for group purchase of engines and ladder trucks. This joint purchasing program has been in existence for over 10 years and the Village has purchased numerous engines and ambulances through this program. The fire department has an Apparatus Committee made up of members from all ranks plus mechanics. The committee looked at multiple vehicles from other manufacturers and found Pierce provided the best workmanship, service and product design features. The recommended apparatus is a tower ladder from Pierce Manufacturing of Appleton, Wisconsin. When we started looking for a new tower ladder Pierce had a demonstrator for sale. The vehicle had approximately 3,000 miles and toured various trade shows. The cost of this demonstrator was $889,000, which was well below the new vehicle price of $1,000,000. T ower Ladder Replacement December 30, 2008 Page 4 The majority of our engines and the existing tower ladder were manufactured by Pierce and we are very please with their products and service. In anticipation of the proposed purchase we placed a hold on this demonstrator pending Village Board approval. However, there was at least one other department looking for the same type of apparatus and was able to move through the purchasing process faster than us and the vehicle was sold to them. Pierce caught in a precarious situation offered us an opportunity to purchase a similar apparatus for the same price - only new. Pierce has a tower ladder in production that is largely the same specifications as the demo unit with the exception of a couple of upgrades. The anticipated delivery date for this apparatus is March 2009. General Bid Information This proposed purchase is recommended through the Northwest Municipal Conference as Pierce Manufacturing was one of the qualified vendors awarded the bid for engines and ladder trucks. Purchase Recommendation The price for the apparatus is $889,000 plus the cost of some modifications to the cabinets and equipment mounting fixtures of $14,737 for a total cost of $903,737. Based on the above information, I recommend the Village Board award the contract to purchase a tower ladder from Pierce Manufacturing, in an amount not to exceed $903,737. Subsequent to Village Board approval for the recommended purchase of a new tower ladder, the 1994 Pierce tower ladder will be sold on the resale market for $245,000. The original purchase price of this vehicle in 1994 was $520,000. We have a firm offer on our existing tower ladder, which is contingent upon approval of the proposed purchase of a new tower ladder. Budaet Authorization Funding for this replacement is provided in the 2009 Budget in the Vehicle Replacement Fund in account number 677709-660120. Michael J.

JANONIS DATE: DECEMBER 24, 2008 SUBJECT: AMBULANCE 522 RE-CHASSIS - WAIVER OF BID The Fire Department is requesting to waive the bid process for the re-chassis of Ambulance 522. I recommend the re-chassis of this ambulance through Foster Coach Sales Inc., which was awarded an ambulance contract through the Northwest Municipal Conference. The new chassis would be a Chevy G4500, which is a switch from the Ford product that the department has historically used. Backaround The Fire Department has established a practice of performing a re-chassis on each ambulance twice before purchasing a completely new vehicle. This practice reduces the long-term cost of the vehicle as the useful life of the ambulance patient compartment, also known as the "box," is extended for a period of 18 years. Ambulance 522 was purchased new in 2001 from Foster Coach and now has over 70,000 miles on it. It has not yet undergone a re-chassis. By choosing to purchase the new chassis through Foster Coach, the warranty on the ambulance's patient compartment will be extended, as will the electrical system warranty. Foster Coach will only re-chassis vehicles they originally built and their prices are in line with other vendors the department has used in the past. The Fire Department has purchased their last four ambulances through Foster Coach and have been very pleased with the overall product and service, especially compared to previous vendors. Re-Chassis Information The Fire Department has exclusively used Ford chassis for its ambulances for over 25 years. Over the last 3 years, however, the department has had multiple problems with the Ford chassis ranging from oil leaks to blown turbo chargers. In some cases 3 turbo chargers on the same vehicle in a 2 year period. Fortunately, a majority of the problems were covered under vehicle warranties, but the ambulances had to be taken out of service for lengthy periods of time to be repaired. Ambulance 522 Re-Chassis - Waiver of Bid November 24, 2008 Page 2 Chevrolet now has a chassis that is compatible with our patient compartment. This new chassis has only been available for a few months. While the Chevrolet G4500 chassis is new, it utilizes the same engine, transmission and other components that are a proven design. The difference with this chassis is that it has the increased Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) necessary for the ambulance, which wasn't available until recently. Given the unreliability of the department's current ambulance chassis, staff is recommending switching from Ford to Chevy chassis. This change is also being recommended by both the Fire Department and Public Works mechanics. Recommendation Staff recommends Village Board approval to waive the bid process for the re-chassis of Ambulance 522 with Foster Coach Sales, Inc. for an amount not to exceed $101,582. The trade in allowance for the existing chassis is $1,000. Budaet Authorization Funds are available in account 6707709-660120 (Replace Fire Department Vehicles). Staff will be on hand at the January 6th Village Board meeting to answer any questions. Michael J.

JANONIS, VILLAGE MANAGER CHIEF OF POLICE V8 MI1 /-~ ..oq ~ TO: SUBJECT: REQUEST TO PURCHASE AN EMERGENCY MESSAGE SIGN DATE: DECEMBER 29, 2008 Police Department Request The Police Department is requesting to purchase a trailer mounted, solar powered, emergency message sign. The portable sign will supplement communication with the community concerning local emergencies and special events. FEMA reimbursement funds earmarked by the Village Board earlier this fiscal year for the purchase of emergency/disaster response related equipment and supplies included monies for this specific purchase. The sign will be purchased through Illinois State Bid vendor Signalisation Ver-Mac Inc. at a cost not to exceed $13,500.00. Attached for review are the State of Illinois Notice of Award and design specifications of the Ver-Mac PCMS- 1500. Discussion Currently, the Village of Mount Prospect does not have the capability of informing motorists or citizens of hazardous or unusual conditions in the community without assigning personnel to convey the message. The recent reconstruction of the Central Road railroad crossing, flooding along the Des Plaines River and annual events such as the Lions Club Village Fair are examples of when this equipment could be used to increase communication. This technology has been increasingly used by the Illinois Department of Transportation, Illinois Toll Highway Authority and local communities to convey information concerning construction zones, unusual events and Amber Alerts. Staff has had an opportunity to physically inspect units manufactured by ADDCO and Signalisation Ver-Mac. These manufacturers provide equipment to both the Illinois Toll Highway Authority and Illinois Department of Transportation. Both units are available via state bid. Both vendors' equipment was found to be substantially similar, offering three lines of text and of sufficient high quality to meet current and future needs of the Village. Page 1 of2 MOUNT PROSPECT POLICE DEPARTMENT FORMAL MEMORANDUM CHF 08-196 CONTROL NUMBER Conclusion & Recommendation Although the equipment offered by both vendors were substantially similar, it is staff's recommendation to purchase the state bid approved Signalisation Ver-Mac PCMS- 1500. This unit provides a significantly larger display compared to the ADDCO unit and is offered at a lower price. The ADDCO unit price is $13,750.00. In addition, Ver-Mac includes four corner screw jacks for increased stability and safety, and a full size keyboard for data input. These standard features on the Ver-Mac unit are options available on the ADDCO unit. Funding for the purchase is available through the account 0014207-570310 Fire Emergency Equipment. I John c: M.
