YAKIMA, WASHINGTON
AGENDA STATEMENT
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
Ladder Truck 91 was transported to True North in Hillsboro, Oregon to have cracks in the body of the
truck repaired. Once the truck was in the True North facility, it was determined that having it inspected to
determine if there were other necessary repairs would be in our best interest, so we proceeded with the
inspection. During the inspection, multiple other issues were discovered, and a quote was provided for
the parts as well as labor that would be needed in order to get the truck back to an operational state and
back to the City of Yakima.
The work on Ladder Truck 91 is not complete at this point but is anticipated to cost a total of $130,000.
The cost for the repair of the cracks that the truck had originally been sent to True North for came to a
total of $12,331 and the total of costs relating to the other repairs and labor that have already been
completed are currently at the amount of $71,316.56.
ITEM BUDGETED: Yes
STRATEGIC PRIORITY 24-25: A Safe and Healthy Yakima
