Holm (ire Chief Zl <br /> SUBJECT: Snowmobile Purchase <br /> DATE: December.12, 2000 <br /> The City has in inventory a snowmobile for use by Fire and Police. This unit is kept on a <br /> trailer at the Fire Station for emergency response and has a companion patient Sled that <br /> can be pulled behind the snowmobile. <br /> Cby <br /> he current snowmobile was recovered by the Police Department as stolen and donated <br /> the insuring company to the City for emergency use. Unfortunately. this sled is in <br /> oor condition and would require ektensive repairs for continued operations. Even if <br /> paired, the existing snowmobile is not designed for the service we need, <br /> Recently,the Fire department was contacted by the local Sno Mos Snowmobile Club <br /> regarding upgrading our trail rescue capability. To assist in this upgrade, a commitment <br /> of$3,000,00 has been made and a check for that amount has been delivered to me. <br /> In researching this need together, the Fin and Police Departments have determined that <br /> the only weakness in our capability is the existing snowmobile. Discussions have <br /> occurred with 61 Sales, a local dealer who is willing to discount a desirable snowmobile <br /> that would meet our needs. <br /> To accomplish this upgrade, an additional$2,334.59 is needed.At the recent City <br /> auction, a snowmobile, utility vehicle and other miscellaneous items were sold and <br /> removed from the Fire Department inventory. <br /> At this time,I am requesting that funds tom the sale of the above mentioned equipment <br /> beyised to provide the additional funding to complete this upgrade. Attached you will <br /> find a copy of the check from the Sno Mos and the quotation from 61 Sales. , <br /> If you have any questions,please-feel free to contact me. • <br /> Attachments <br /> r,nr n1 rM,nr rnl,neT,n�, riot r3MC%1MK1r1nn1 _ eeeai 11 Anirc Q=rautre <br />
