A Plant and Equipment Mechanic uses this vehicle on a daily basis. Other Water/Wastewater Division personnel utilize 4 to respond to system problems and customer calls after hours, on weekends, and on holidays. Service Truck 04-073 was purchased for $12,030.00 and has accumulated repair costs of $8,989.12 We are upgrading from a three -quarter -ton to a one -ton king -cab to provide us with more lockable storage area and greater flexibility for a variety of maintenance functions. The utility body from the existing service truck Vill be retained and remounted on the new cab and chassis. The current service truck will then be transferred to Parks and Recreation after installation of a truck bed from storage. It will replace Truck 07-115. a 1974 Ford half -ton pickup purchased on August 4, 1974. Truck 07-115 has an odometer reading of 218,005 miles. an accumulated cost of $8,425.86, and has served its usefulness. This truck is not of sufficient size nor strong enough to meet the anticipated needs of the Parks and Recreation Department.
