SUBMITTED BY: Fire Chief
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt the attached resolution
awarding the bid for the purchase of 48 Cairns Model
1010 fiberglass reinforced helmets with face shield to L.N.
Curtis and Sons of Oakland in the amount of $8,301.06.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On June 21, 1995 the City Council authorized advertise-
ment for bids. Bid forms were mailed to four companies;
bids were opened on July 6, 1995. Allstar Fire Equipment,
Inc. of Baldwin Park responded with a proposal offering
Bullard helmets, while L. N. Curtis was the sole bidder for the specified Cairns helmets.
Allstar's proposal of $6,465.00 for the Bullard helmet was not considered since the Bullard helmet lacks
a number of the safety features offered by the Cairns 1010.
L. N. Curtis' unit price of $160.00 plus tax (delivered) compares to Cairns' list price of $199.90 for the
1010.
