Johnson City Administrator SUBJECT: Equipment Certificates The several City departments have been talkir_g ai�out the ne large equipment for the past year or more. I have advised the F Department personnel and the Public Works people that we were pl to issue an Equipment Certificate issue to cover the costs of ma equipment sometime in the future. As you recall, the last equip certificate was issued in 1970 and included the several large In Harvestor trucks and some other major road equipment and a fire equipment certificates were paid off in 1974 and since that time no debt levy for either equipment or public improvements. The t we should give serious consideration to additional eauipment pur the financing process of Equipment Certificates. Since the levy equipment certificates is allowed as an excess levy, there is no trouble ti•ith the levy limitation laws. As a quick review, it should be noted that financing of cert equipment is allowable under MSA 412.301. �he law reads in part: Council may issue certificates of indebtedness within existing de for the purpose of purcha$ing fire or police equipment or ambulan or 5treet construction or maintenance equipment, Such certificat payable in not more than five years and shall be issued on such t such manner as the Council r.►ay determine...and they (certificates indebtedness) shall not be issued for at least ten days after pu� the official newspaper of a Council resolution determining to iss if before the end of that time a petitifln asking for an election proposition signed by voters equal to 10� of the number of voters re5�lar municipal election is filed with the Clerk, such certific not be issued until the proposition of their issuance has been ap majority of the votes cast on the question at a regular or specia A tax Ievy shall be made for the payment of the principal and int such certificates as in the case of bonds." This method of financing large equipment is used quite prev� amongst municipalities. Some of our neighboring municipalities i method of financing for annual purchase of squad cars. It is an method and I hereby recommend that we use such a method of financ capitol expenditures described in the following paragraphs. for ational k. 2'hese re has been has arrived, es via retire flict or n A t I.1Rllt5 e equipment s shall be rms and in of ication in e them; and n the at the last tes shall roved by a election. rest on tly this le � � ' Equipment Certificates -2- October 13, 1977 The proposed 1978 budget included an item of $18,600 as rev nue which is shown on page 9. This $18,600 represents the total capitol e enditures included in the budget for the police, fire and road and bridge udgets. As is noted in the budget document, the several items included i that amount include two squad cars for the police deaprtment plus som associated equipment for the squad cars and other police use, $4,000 for fi e hose and other fire fighting equipment and $2,000 for several pieces of e ipment in the road and bridge department. Since the Ievy resolution as ad pted on October 4th does not include or cover these expenditures, it is bvious that the implementatinn of the budget then requires the issuance of at least $18,600 of Equipment Certificates to fund the proposed equ pment. This process seems quite straight-forward and quite necessary, h nce I will not spend any additiDnal time on such justification. However, a ditional items should be inaluded within the total amount of the Equipmen Certificates and such explanation follows. The fire department personnel have prepared specifications 1250 GPM pumper. This is a piece of equipment needed to keep th pumping capacity of the fire equipment within expected parameter be used to replace, in effect, the old 1960 Ford pumper. The sp for this truck were recently submitted to me and their closer sc justification will need to be discussed further with the City Co addition to the new truck, the Firemen are contemnlating the res of the 1960 Ford into a quick response vehicle. They have appar determined that such an operation can be performed on that chass result in a quick response vehicle capable and proper for our us estimated cost of this equipment is: 1.) $75,000 for the new pum $10,000 for the remodeled quick response truck. In other words $85,000 of fire equipment should be included in a forthcoming eq certificate issue. The Public Works Department people have been discussing a n pieces of equipment for the past several years. Some pieces of will be necessary to replace old equipment and several new piece equipment should be considered. The following discussion is an justify the replacement of our old equipment and the justificati several new pieces of equipment. A. Replacement of old equipment. 1. Existing 301. 1968 Chevrolet Pick-up with 80,000 miles, completely used and ready for retiretnent. Presently used as tool truck in Street Department, proposed to replace with one-ton truck chassis low-side dump body. 2, Existing 309. 1974 Plymouth, old squad car, 80,000 miles, completely used.

Existing 402. John Deere Backhoe. 1970 model with 4500 hours on the machine. Unit is too small (only 59 horsepower) proposed to replace with larger backhoe approximately 83 horsepower, net cost-- Total Replacement Cost: B. New Eauipment: Sweeper. The matter of a street sweeper has been discussed for auite some time, the intensity depending upon the success of contracting sweeping services. For several years, our success was horrible, however, during 1977 we did obtain a reputable contractor for a reasonable price. We have spent approximate- ly $3,500 per year for one sweeping, but better service is desireable with obviously increased rates and increased miles, A sweeper would allow us to do a cleaner job � on the streets at more appropriate times. Estimated cost -- $6; 500 $28�000 $48,I500 $40�000 One should remember that the new fire truck for $75,000 and sweeper at $40,000 represent new pieces of equipment and are cont upon the timely construction of a Public Works garage. Obviously authorization of an equipment certificate issue could be adopted, acknowledging the future purchase of these two pieces of equipmen given to understand that an issue is valid if equipment is purcha three years of issuing date. One further item of concern -- the very early replacement of 501. The 1972 International has been a very poor piece of equipm should have been considered for replacement prior to now. I have holding the request-pending the issuance of equipment certifiaate you have not been formally notified for the need for replacement. piece of equipment is used in part for the maintenance of skating and should, under any conditions, be replaced before the skating It will need new tires if it is to be kept into the operating sea Since its value is not comparable with new tires, I am suggesting authorization for this piece of equipment be granted promptly, al to place an order so that we have a reliable piece of equipment f� use. • ne new ngent the .

The sum total of the above equipment would amount to about $192,000 ich would result in a debt retirement levy of slightly over one mil.

Are they the same as those in private organizations? The reaction of public administrators is almost universally that management in public affairs has particular dimensions of its own. Sometimes, though, they are hard to pinpoint. Why — to mention one common charge — isn't government just like a business? Perhaps it would help us all, public administrators and citizens, if we highlighted some �characteristics of public management that are significantly different from business management. First a word of disclaimer. As any public ad- ministrator will quickly recognize, these points are not really original with the author. Most are well. known or easily recognized by anyone engaged in public management. A number were mentioned at previous league conferences. �. : 1 ?� • • F�� .� � • r � .' �A�JIs.� :�i t . . n�.i' -� �,._ ��,� ��- � a;;�� : ,� .a:. �; <i� �'�. :� z . ;: ' ''�' ,�� + �. 4A /' _��K�� ;� - �.�:, .�.� � . ; y �' ;f� �.` . .�k '„"'. � i ��.� '��' ;' � , - �i��y �•n F � .i ;a�r �,.�Q$,.'??; " /'�3f`i"�, �",�+ : �� /' �' � � •..€r�x_ �:. ..;� .''K+yq�,�� ; : ��r . � ; ��v�� ,'��f�'`� ;.l.: ��'�� _ � ��@�,. h. .si'1/'.w(. +�.Vh�:.� x' `'�J��v�r�,�.�' ' 4 rJ<Y .r �/% , .
