INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM

Tukwila City Council

SUBJECT: Adjustments to the Public Safety Plan Equipment Funding Schedule
ISSUE
The Fire Department seeks support from the City Council to make three adjustments to the
Public Safety Plan (PSP) equipment funding schedule.
BACKGROUND
The Public Safety Bond was voter approved in 2016 and includes funding for Fire apparatus
and equipment. The Fire Department manages this schedule with assistance from the
Finance Department.
DISCUSSION
The Fire Department is requesting three changes to the 2020 equipment funding schedule. If the
Council approves the changes below, the equipment fund will have an ending balance of $80,509:
SCBA Fill Station: The funding schedule for the PSP Bond Apparatus and Equipment
budget contains $125,247 for a SCBA compressor at the new Fire Station (FS) 51. The
intent is to move the existing compressor at FS51 to FS54. There is also a small fill station
in a trailer at FS53. The plan has always been for FS51 to be the main SCBA fill station.
However, having capabilities at the other stations would be most beneficial and provide
back up to the main compressor at FS51. To increase efficiency in the department a
smaller SCBA system has been specified for new FS52. The total for these two systems is
$135,600. This is over the budget for the SCBA line item by $10,353.
Body Armor: In the 2019 schedule had $39,851 and an additional $1,759 in 2020 for body
armor. The Department did not purchase any body armor in 2019. Body armor must be
replaced on a regular schedule as the equipment degrades over time. The cost of replacing
the body armor for the department is $47,000. This is $5,390 more than what was budgeted
in 2019 and 2020.
SCBA Cylinders and Trans -Fill Whips: SCBA cylinders are critical equipment that firefighters
use during fires. Seven cylinders are scheduled to be replaced in 2020 and all 50 trans -fill
whips must be replaced this year. Trans -fill whips are the emergency fill between air packs.
These are 20 years old, are failing and the manufacturer is requiring that they be replaced.
The total cost for the cylinders and trans -fill whips is $48,500. While no funding for these
items was identified in 2020 in the schedule, there has been savings in previous years on
this line item. Even with the $48,500 expenditure in 2020, the SCBA line item has a savings
of $31,794.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
With these changes to the equipment schedule, the overall ending fund balance for the equipment
fund at the end of 2020 will be $80,509. The City has realized savings in previous years on SCBA
equipment and mobile data computers that will allow funding for the operational needs described
above.
If approved, a budget amendment will be presented to Council in the 4th quarter of 2020 to
formalize these decisions.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is seeking Council permission to adjust the equipment schedule as described above. If the
committee concurs, staff would recommend that this goes to the February 3, 2020 consent
agenda.
