(Print name of M/WBE Subcontractor) By: (Signature) (Print name/title of person executing on behalf of M/WBE Subcontractor) Date: CITY OF DANIA BEACH FIRE-RESCUE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: Ivan Pato, City Manager FROM: Kenneth Land, Fire Chief DATE: May 20, 2002 SUBJECT: SCBA Compressor and Air Fill Station Attached you will find the November 15, 2001, bid from Palm Beach County on a compressor and an air fill station for high pressure breathing air system for fire rescue, furnish, install and maintain. The Bid Number is 01-192/CB. United Compressor Inc. of North Palm Beach was awarded the bid. (See brochure.) As you're aware our current compressor/fill station was purchased twenty years ago and no longer meets NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) requirements. In addition, to keep the current fill station operational, a complete overhaul will be required; this, however, will not solve the problem of the current requirements by NFPA for a totally enclosed fill station for high-pressure air cylinders. In our current budget under "capital outlay", in account No. 001-22-0800-56-644 (Machines and Equipment), there are sufficient funds to purchase the compressor and air fill station. The bid price is $28,094.25. We were given $1,500.00 trade-in on our current fill station which brings the price to $26,594.25. This purchase includes labor and all the equipment required to fill our air cylinders and is NFPA compliant. We are able to take advantage of a bid price that Palm Beach County received based on their purchase of several compressors and fill stations at the same time. This is a continuation of a capital project which began last year in which our old low pressure, obsolete, self contained breathing apparatus were phased out and new, high pressure air packs were purchased. The purchase of the compressor/fill station completes this project other than our usual request each budget to boy 2 or 3 air packs to build up our inventory and rotate our units a they become unusable due to the extreme environment in which they are required to operate. If you need anything further, please let me know.
