In summary, with both types being built with good equipment and
appearing to be of sound construction, my decision, based on better
price, service, aluminum construction and the ability to meet our
preferred delivery time and being the low bidder, is to recommend bid
award to Collins Ambulance for vehicle and equipment as per City of
Southlake specifications .

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 27, 1987
TO: Lloyd 0. Latta, Jr. , City Manager
FROM: R.P. Steele, Fire Chief
SUBJECT: Recommendations - Bid Proposal for Aerial Platform and
Pumper
As you know, we received only the one bid from Riggs First Line
Equipment, Emergency One dealers. They are submitting their bids on
the Aerial Platform and the 1500 GPM Pumper. My comments and
recommendation are as follows .
First the units would be of all aluminum construction as per our
specifications. The specifications submitted do meet, with no
exceptions, all of our request in the specifications required by the
City of Southlake.
I recommend we include option #1 of the specifications calling for
the all enclosed cab. In support of this, I want to attach to the
review the 1901 Equipment and Safety Standards to be initiated
possibly in a year or two. With this new safety factor being
applied, all new equipment should comply with the upcoming change in
cab configuration for better safety for firemen while riding on
trucks (even now no firefighter rides on the outside of the truck,
side step, tail board etc. )
Equipment Prices:
•
95 ' Telescopic Platform $392,300.00
(complete unit as per specifications, radio included
no exceptions)
Adding Option #1 (Enclosed Cab) 10,826.00
Total Price $403,126. 00
Protector IV T.M. 1500 GPM Pumper $180,800.00
(complete unit as per specifications, radio included
no exceptions) -
Adding Option #1 (Enclosed Cab) 10,826.00
•
Total Price $191, 626.00

In summary, having checked the specifications for the Aerial Platform
and Pumper to make sure they comply with the City Specifications, and
having used and still using two trucks with all aluminum construction
from Emergency One which I feel have given good service with the
least amount of maintenance, I do recommend to accept the proposed
bid on the Aerial Platform and the 1500 GPM Pumper.

1901 Requires Enclosed . - . ;i:^ .. 7:.: -- •
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standards
Council has voted to release a tentative interim amendment-3 T
^) ' (TIA) to Standard 1901 which governs the construction of fire
apparatus .
The TIA, originally proposed by the NFPA Committee -on f - ;
Fire Department Equipment, requires that seats with ' seat -.:` .
belts must be provided for the number of persons who -will '_;:. '
ride on fire apparatus . The amendment also requires that .the s:- .'
i seats be in enclosed locations, which would include cabs,.....'•
crew compartments or three-sided canopies. It is the respon•- • :•-
sibility of the fire department to advise the manufacturer of -
- the maximum number of persons who will be on ' board the ve- .:'
hicle at any time . - - r.1':T-k 4J..,
-..',:; :- • .
• This requirement is NOT retroactive and will affect only ::`
j new vehicles built under the. standard . .
This amendment was advertised and many comments were -, _
received, most of which emphasized the need for increased
protection for fire fighters riding emergency vehicles .
When ordering new fire apparatus, the purchaser now must
specify clearly the seating to be provided . All references -
19 that suggest riding on tail steps or running boards have been =.
eliminated from the standard and the committee has declared •-
these to be unsafe riding positions .
As enclosed seating becomes the accepted national stan-
dard, a responsibility must be assumed by the fire department ;.,,.
to make sure that all crew members ride in their seats at a11,15 4..
__ times, wearingthe seat belts that are provided . _Riding `on ��

In summary, with both types being built with good equipment and
appearing to be of sound construction, my decision, based on better
price, service, aluminum construction and the ability to meet our
preferred delivery time and being the low bidder, is to recommend bid
award to Collins Ambulance for vehicle and equipment as per City of
Southlake specifications .

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 27, 1987
TO: Lloyd O. Latta, Jr. , City Manager
•
FROM: R.P. Steele, Fire Chief
SUBJECT: Recommendations - Bid Proposal for Aerial Platform and
Pumper
As you know, we received only the one bid from Riggs First Line
Equipment, Emergency One dealers. They are submitting their bids on
the Aerial Platform and the 1500 GPM Pumper. My comments and
recommendation are as follows .
First the units would be of all aluminum construction as per our
specifications. The specifications submitted do meet, with no
exceptions, all of our request in the specifications required by the
City of Southlake.
I recommend we include option #1 of the specifications calling for
the all enclosed cab. In support of this, I want to attach to the
review the 1901 Equipment and Safety Standards to be initiated
possibly in a year or two. With this new safety factor being
applied, all new equipment should comply with the upcoming change in
cab configuration for better safety for firemen while riding on
trucks (even now no firefighter rides on the outside of the truck,
side step, tail board etc. )
Equipment Prices:
•
95 ' Telescopic Platform $392,300. 00
(complete unit as per specifications, radio included
no exceptions)
Adding Option #1 (Enclosed Cab) 10, 826.00
Total Price $403, 126. 00
Protector IV T.M. 1500 GPM Pumper $180,800.00
(complete unit as per specifications, radio included
no exceptions)
Adding Option #1 (Enclosed Cab) 10,826. 00
Total Price $191,626. 00

In summary, having checked the specifications for the Aerial Platform
and Pumper to make sure they comply with the City Specifications, and
having used and still using two trucks with all aluminum construction
from Emergency One which I feel have given good service with the
least amount of maintenance, I do recommend to accept the proposed
bid on the Aerial Platform and the 1500 GPM Pumper.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standards ,_ ;.._
Council has voted to release a tentative interim amendment '`-: 1'r
(TIA) to Standard 1901 which governs the construction of fire
apparatus .
The TIA, originally proposed by the NFPA Committee
Fire Department Equipment, requires that seats with seat
belts must be provided for the number of persons who will = '
ride on fire apparatus . The amendment also requires that .the ;. .
seats be in enclosed locations, which would include cabs; :'`
crew compartments or three-sided canopies. It is the respon- . .
sibility of the fire department to advise the manufacturer of •.<
-
- the maximum number of persons who will be on • board _ the ve= .; 1:
hicle at any time . . . :-: s;
• This requirement is NOT retroactive and will affect only
new vehicles built under the. standard .
•
This amendment was advertised and many comments were
received, most of which emphasized the need for increased
protection for fire fighters riding emergency vehicles .
When ordering new fire apparatus, the purchaser now must
specify clearly the seating to be provided . All references
that suggest riding on tail steps or running boards have been
eliminated from the standard and the committee has declared
these to be unsafe riding positions . •
As enclosed seating becomes the accepted national stan-
dard , a responsibility must be assumed by the fire department . :-::-_ . .
• to make sure that all crew members ride in their seats at all .;. ;;I-,•.
