.5 <br /> <br />2002 CAPITAL EQUIPMENT SCHEDULE <br /> By: Diana Lund, Finance Officer <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />At the Board of Adjustment meeting on May 1, 2001, the variance of Amcor was denied <br />due to the lack of adequate service that could be provided by public safety. Three years <br />prior, The Savannah Oaks Senior Center was given a variance, With the assurance that an <br />aerial truck would be purchased in the near future. <br /> <br />A 35-foot height restriction was established because of the limitations current public <br />safety equipment encounters. To combat this restriction, an aerial fire truck is needed <br />which would allow reaches of up to 100 feet. This also would allow a safer work <br />environment for the City's public safety employees. <br /> <br />Without the service of an aerial truck, the City cannot meet the safety requirements of <br />some businesses that desire to build within the City limits. <br /> <br />Staff Recommendation: <br /> <br />Discussion of possible financing sources for the purchase of an aerial ladder truck. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />Based upon recommendations by the Finance Committee and discussion of the City <br />Council. <br /> <br /> <br />
