The replacement of three marked patrols Nos. sk1029, sk1030, and sk1031 is included in the 2019 Capital Improvement Plan (see attached information sheet CIP No. Equip-19-311). These vehicles are being purchased under the State of Minnesota Contract No. 158505. Vehicle set up is anticipated to be performed by Emergency Automotive Technologies, Inc. and components purchased under the state contracts. The quotations from Tenvoorde Ford Motor Co. and Emergency Automotive Technologies, Inc., are attached and consistent with state contracts.  

This purchase was previously approved by council and an order was placed in September 2018. Ford ran out of the prior model vehicles and cancelled Shakopee’s, among other communities, order in January 2019. The new state contract for these vehicles was updated in May 2019. The new model increased in price, has larger dimensions and requires additional investment with all new setup equipment. The cost of the vehicle is $33,870 each plus an additional $12,334.40 each for the equipment install and setup, totaling $138,613.20 for all three. The three old patrol vehicles will be rotated to replace other holdover vehicles that are used for city staff vehicles. The holdover vehicles that are replaced will then be declared surplus and will be sold.
