Purchase Order, Rosenbauer South Dakota, LLC, Fire Department Utility Truck and Water Tender Purchase 

Purpose:

Discussion and possible action to approve a purchase order with Rosenbauer South Dakota, LLC for a Utility Truck and Water Tender in the amount of $1,791,504, in accordance with budget authority previously approved by Council, with a formal contract to be negotiated between the city and Rosenbauer South Dakota, LLC.

Summary:

As part of the Fiscal Year 2024 budget process, the Peoria Fire-Medical Department determined a Utility Truck and Water Tender would enhance the level of public safety service provided by the department. The actual cost for the Utility Truck is $1,300,026 and the cost of the 3,000 Gallon Water Tender is $586,564. There is a discount of $69,086 for the utility truck and $26,000 for the water tender, if paid in full at the time of order. The Use Tax and truck accessories will be requested through the Fiscal Year 2026 supplemental process due to the delayed delivery date. 

The total cost for the Utility Truck would be $1,230,940 and $560,564 for the Water Tender, with the discount of paying in full at the time of order. The total amount for both pieces of apparatus would be $1,791,504.  The total amount would be $1,886,590 for both pieces of apparatus without the prepayment discount.

The proposed contract price is valid through March 29, 2024, and estimated delivery time is approximately 20 months after date of order.  The purchase of these pieces of apparatus will allow the Fire-Medical Department to continue to provide superior public safety services.
