I , Funds for the purchase and outfitting of a vehicle for the! chief are not provided in the 1966-67 budget and purchase is to b~ made from available funds in the 1965-66 Adopted Budget. I , ¡ Study has been given to the type of vehicle which would be~t serve the needs of the Fire Chief and department. On the basis o~ these considerations, alternate specifications have been prepared I to receive bids on both a four wheel drive station wagon and a st4n- dard station wagon. A copy of the specifications are attached fot the Council's approval. ' FOUR ~fflEEL DRIVE STATION ~vAGON ¡ Purchase of a four wheel drive station wagon will provide ! a vehicle with the capability of off-the-road work in the norther~ , portion of the City and would permit the chief to work closely with fire apparatus responding to grass fires. - ~NDAED STATION t-lAGON A standard station wagon would provide more space for such emergency equipment as f-ire extinguishers, stretcher and life saving equipment, but would not have the capability for off-the- road work as would the four wheel drive vehicle.
