EMERGENCY SQUAD BID
The bid received from Seekins Ford of Soldotna in partnership with SVI Trucks Fire &
Rescue Company of Loveland, Colorado meets the required specifications.
After a complete review of the bid, it is within the range anticipated for an equipped
rescue vehicle. It will fulfill rescue, extrication, structural fire response needs, and will
provide a wild land fire response ability that we have never had before.
Per the Insurance Service Organization (ISO) this vehicle, as equipped, will add credit
toward the City's fire insurance rating during future evaluations.
The equipment provided with the vehicle (included in the bid price) is competitively
priced per independent supply companies (L. N. Curtis & Sons and Vallen Safety
Supply).
