Department Project Title Project Number
Fleet Services Ambulance Replacement (Unit 980) FS2201
Project Description
This is for the purchase of a new ambulance to replace unit 980, a 2009 year-model Chevrolet C4500 outfitted with a 14' Frazer
brand generator-powered module. When replaced, the ambulance will be 12 years old and have an estimated odometer reading of
172,000 miles. In addition to replacing the ambulance equipment and make ready expenses will be necessary, purchases will
include: advanced airway equipment, spinal immobilization and splinting equipment, firefighting tools, safety equipment, and
miscellaneous medical equipment/supplies. The cost of the ambulance is estimated at $385,000, which includes $360,000 for the
purchase of the ambulance and $25,000 for make ready costs.
Project Justification
The hours on this ambulance as of mid-January 2021 was 14,011, which is equivalent to 490,385 miles. At the time of replacement,
the estimated mileage based on hours will be in excess of 493,000 miles. In addition, at six to seven years of age, the cost of
maintenance and repairs increases and reliability becomes a factor. This leads to the ambulance being out of service more
frequently.
Funding Source: $385,000 from Certificates of Obligation.
