Discussion & Consideration of Bid to Paint the 1951 Fire Truck
Emergency Management Director Josh Phillips presented two quotes from Killian’s Truck Collision & Paint Inc. to paint the 1951 Fire Truck: $18,000, including chrome, and $15,500, not including chrome. He explained that he contacted other companies for quotes to paint the truck, but they only work with insurance companies. Commissioner Miles described the truck's history and the reasons for restoring it. It is the oldest truck in the County, starting in Roosevelt and then given to Tabiona. The truck was later surplused; the buyer decided they no longer wanted it and offered to have the County purchase it for the amount he paid. With the County celebrating America 250, they want to preserve its history. The truck is running and will be used in celebrations. Commissioner Killian made a motion to approve the quote from Killian’s Truck Collision & Paint Inc., including chrome for $18,000, using Fund 41. Commissioner Chugg seconded the motion. Commissioner Killian voted aye, Commissioner Chugg voted aye, and Commissioner Miles voted aye. The motion passed.
