The Public Works truck fleet includes seven trucks. The replacement budget includes a tow package and Whelen
strobe lights for a new vehicle purchased through the State Venture contract. A truck is anticipated to be replaced in
2020 and one in 2021. The trucks have a useful life of 5-7 years; however, PW staff has maintained the vehicles and
kept mileage down when possible to extend the life of the trucks to 10-15 years. The future replacements are tiered to
reduce a one-year impact of a total fleet replacement. The trade-in values will help offset the vehicle costs. With the
2018 annexation and continued growth of the City, an additional maintenance worker and additional equipment will
be needed. Seed money should be included in the budget for an additional 1 ton maintenance truck, including plow
and sander. The estimated cost of the additional truck is $50,000 and programmed to purchase in 2023. The 2020
vehicle will be an addition to the fleet, keeping #25 a few more years. #25 is showing wear, but still able to use for
projects in the city limits. The trade in value will be minimal due to the age, miles and wear on the vehicle. It is
more beneficial to keep in the fleet as a spare to use when needed.
