BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Funds to purchase an animal control truck cab and chassis for the Police Department were approved through a Special Allocation on March 8, 1991, (attached). The unit will replace the existing truck #05026 and be used by Animal Control Officers to pick up live and dead animals. The current truck cab and chassis is a 1980 Ford F100 1/2 ton that is inadequate to support the new transport box. These specifications are for a 3/4 ton cab and chassis that will support the larger, heavier unit. FUNDING: Budgeted Fund 12.0 Total Project Estimate $16,500. Bid Opening Date 4/3/91 Jack L.

Description o` Project Estimated Cost Animal Control Cab b Chassis The Police Department has budgeted $18,000 for the purchase of a replacement $ 7,500.00 truck box for the Animal Control Division in the current fiscal year. In preparing specifications for that unit, two things were discovered: 1) The unit they need must be mounted on a 3/4 ton cab b chassis. 2) The fabrication of the box they require should only cost $8,000 - $9,000 complete, including installation. Because the current cab and chassis is a 1980 Ford F100 1/2 ton truck which is not adequate to support the new animal control box and since it was scheduled for replacement in 1991-92 anyway, it is requested that $7,500 in additional funding be allocated now for a cab and chassis.
