| | | | | | | | Subject:
Declare 2006 fire ladder truck surplus and authorize its sale. | | |
| | | | | | | | Policy/Action Requested:
The Shakopee Fire Department is seeking City Council approval to declare a 2006 fire ladder truck with its loose equipment surplus and authorize its sale. | | |
| | | | | | | | Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council declare Shakopee Ladder 1 and its equipment surplus and authorize its sale to the City of Belle Plaine. | | |
| | | | | | | | Discussion:
The City of Shakopee Fire Department currently operates two fire ladder trucks. With recent staffing changes and anticipated future changes the fire department is recommending selling one of the two ladder trucks and not replacing this truck. The truck was scheduled to be replaced in 2026 for $1,540,000. Ladder 1 is a 2006 Rosenbauer 109’ ladder truck that was authorized to be purchased by the City Council in January of 2005 for $596,118. The City of Belle Plaine has offered to purchase the truck including the loose equipment on the truck for $450,000. | | |
| | | | | | | | Budget Impact:
There is no impact to the department budget. | | |
