Agenda Item No. City of Elgin g September 8, 2006 _ i TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Olufemi Folarin, City Manager' Mike Falese, Fire Chief SUBJECT: Replacement of Fire Boat 5 PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with information to consider the purchase of a replacement for Fire Boat 5 from West Shore Fire, Inc. RECOMMENDATION a�w It is recommended that the City Council approve the purchase of a Red Zodiac Pro 7 Man RIB boat from West Shore Fire, Inc. in the amount of$16,315. BACKGROUND Fire Boat 5 is a small, light-weight watercraft that can be easily deployed into remote bodies of water (i.e. the quarry, large ponds, detention ponds, etc.) that are unable to be accessed by the other two Department watercraft. It can also be deployed for river operations. It is currently out of service due to leaks in the hull and tube-sides. It has been determined that one section of the tube-side is leaking from between the laminated sections. Upon further examination, it was found that the hull was taking on water in its hollow void space. There is no way to remove this water short of drilling the hull, draining the water, and patching or plugging the drilled-out portion. The area of the hull leak would still need to be determined. It was the view of the Marine Technician Division at West Shore Fire, Inc. that Boat 5 is old for that style watercraft and it is very heavily worn. At a minimum, it was recommended that the hull be patched and the tubes replaced. The estimated cost of repairs is between $6,000 and $7,000, and the Department has been warned that it is common for repaired areas to place additional stress on other weak areas that could consequently lead to continuous need for repairs. The Department purchased Boat 5 with a used motor sixteen years ago. At that time, the options for small boats build sturdy enough for rescue operations were limited. In order to obtain a boat 401k. that was small and light enough to easily access remote bodies of water, the Department purchased a recreational boat that was built to be a yacht-tender. Boat 5 has no batteries and Replacement of Fire Boat 5 '� September 8, 2006 Page 2 consequently, no lights. Technically this makes night-time operations with this boat both illegal and dangerous. Also, the handles that assist in manually transporting Boat 5 to remote locations have fallen off the tubes and require repair. Boat 5 is already sixteen years old and is likely to require subsequent repairs resulting in additional expense and significant out-of-service time. It should be replaced with a modern, specialized rescue boat that will meet Departmental needs in terms of versatility, dependability, and operations for many years. By replacing Boat 5, the Fire Department would be replacing a much needed piece of front-line equipment. Subsequently, the Department would realize a boat that is safer for both victims and firefighters, with a design for rapid deployment which would meet the demands of the water-rescue and recovery role. Boat 5 is the only watercraft that is stationed south of the dam. COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None FINANCIAL IMPACT The cost of the boat from West Shore Fire, Inc. will total $16,315. There were no funds budgeted for this expenditure. In 2005, the Fire Department received approximately $45,000 in a bequest that could be used for fire related activities. Account number 010-2802-735.92-46, Fire Department, Other Equipment, project number 289686, Fire Rescue Boat, would be charged. A budget adjustment will be necessary. I(�_ LEGAL IMPACT None ALTERNATIVES 1. The Council may choose to accept the proposal to replace Boat 5 2. The council may choose to not replace Boat 5 Respectfully submitted for Council consideration.
