• On May 22nd 2020 bids were opened for a new 2020 F450 Ambulance and were as follows:

 
Klocke’s Emergency Vehicles  (Lifeline) $240,958.00
American Response Vehicles $232,351.00

• All bids were opened and the exceptions were examined for the two ambulance manufacturers that bid. The bid is for a custom built ambulance to match the current fleet of ambulances and have similar layout and options. We will be trading in a 2009 ambulance.   

• The city plans on an ambulance to be in service for about 9-10 years before replacement and thus the quality of construction and warrantee of electrical, paint, and module of the ambulance is the reason for many of the specifications.
