CITY OF PALM DESERT
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DEPARTMENT
MEETING DATE: October 25, 2018
PREPARED BY: Stephen Y. Aryan, Risk Manager
REQUEST: Request for replacement of the Cove Communities Commission Ladder
Truck No. 33.
Recommendation
By Minute Motion,
1. Authorize Cal -Fire to move forward with the replacement of Ladder Truck No. 33 with
a new Tractor Drawn Aerial.
2. Authorize Cal -Fire to place the current Ladder Truck No. 33 into reserve status when
the new ladder truck is placed into service.
Commission Recommendation
The Palm Desert Public Safety Commission reviewed this matter at their October 10, 2018,
meeting and recommended that the City Council proceed with staff's recommendation.
Strategic Plan
This matter is related to the Public Safety and Emergency Services section of the Palm
Desert Strategic Plan, specifically under Priority 1: Enhance the Delivery of Public Safety
Services. The priority's strategy is to expand the existing superlative services provided by
the fire and police departments to address future growth and safety concems. One of the
action steps is to identify Public Safety needs including new equipment.
Background
Approval of Staff's recommendation permits the City of Palm Desert Fire Department to
move forward with the purchase of a new ladder truck to replace the current 15 year old
Ladder Truck No. 33 which is based at Palm Desert Fire Station No. 33 (adjacent to the
Westfield Mall).
The cost to purchase a new ladder truck is estimated at $1.3 million and will be shared
between the Cities of Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and Indian Wells, based on the current
Cove Commission ladder truck funding formula, which is outlined in the Fiscal Analysis
section of this staff report. If a new truck is authorized by the respective Cove Communities
city councils, it will take approximately 15 months before it will be placed in to iservice. Due
to its age, the current truck is starting to experience frequent maintenance issues and has
spent over 150 days in the maintenance shop over the last year and a half.

The Cove Communities Commission, which has two councilmembers from each of the Cove
Community Cities met on June 6, 2018, and approved the recommendation to forward this
item for consideration by each respective Cove Communities city council.
The representatives from Palm Desert are Mayor Sabby Jonathan and Mayor Pro-Tempore
Susan Marie Weber. Cal -Fire personnel will be present at the City Council meeting and will
provide a brief PowerPoint presentation.
Fiscal Analysis
As noted, there is a 15 month build and delivery period for the new ladder truck; therefore,
staff is not requesting a Fiscal Year 2018-19 budget adjustment at this time. When additional
information is available on the purchase and delivery timeline, staff will return to the City
Council for approval of the necessary budget adjustment. The breakdown of the estimated
purchase cost of the ladder truck is noted below and based on the current Cove Commission
Formula utilized for annual ladder truck expenses. The City of Palm Desert will be
responsible for approximately $662,000 of the replacement cost. The amount is included in
the City's reserve study as equipment replacement.
Estimated Purchase Price: $1,300,000
