MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the Equipment Services Division is to support all City departments by
maintaining, repairing and replacing City equipment in a timely and cost-effective manner, so
as to prevent interruptions in City services.

DIVISION DESCRIPTION

The Equipment Services Division is responsible for providing maintenance, repair, procurement,
and disposal of fleet vehicles and related equipment. The Division also oversees the supply
warehouse.

The Fleet Services Division is committed to maintaining, repairing, and replacing city vehicles and
equipment in a timely and cost-effective manner so as to prevent interruptions in city services.
The Fleet Services Division follows a replacement schedule to determine vehicle depreciation and
estimate service life. During the vehicle’s service life, all parts, fuel and repairs are tracked. Each
year during the budget process, all vehicles are evaluated based on their age, mileage, and
maintenance and repair costs. Following this evaluation process, the necessary vehicles are
budgeted to be replaced in the upcoming fiscal year. After vehicles are approved for
replacement, Fleet Services staff examine them to determine if any equipment can be reused, in
an effort to lower costs.

PRIOR YEAR RESULTS & ACCOMPLISHMENTS
✓ The Equipment Repair Program addressed predictive, non-predictive and emergency

equipment maintenance and repair. During scheduled preventive maintenance, the piece
of equipment is thoroughly inspected for deficiencies. Deficiencies are repaired
immediately or scheduled for repair at a later date.
✓ Last year the City purchased a new street sweeper, and trailer mounted generator. The
remaining units that were due for replacement were not ordered due to the microchip
shortage.
