Re: Resolution for multi -year lease
Enclosed is a resolution authorizing the payment of funds for more than one fiscal year
for a new multi -year lease agreement for two (2) fire apparatus for the Hawaii Fire
Department. These apparatus are to replace two fire trucks, Engine 3 at Kawailani, and
Engine 4 at the Kaumana Fire Station, which are over twenty years old, thereby
suffering from increased maintenance costs, down time and unreliability. The
anticipated total lease cost for the two trucks is $23,500 per month.
If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call Robert Belcher of the Hawaii
Fire Department at 932 -2921.

A. REQUEST:
Please prepare a resolution authorizing the payment of funds - in a later fiscal year and for more than one
fiscal year - for a multi -year lease of two (2) fire apparatus (also called fire trucks) for the Fire Department.
The lease would specifically be for a five (5) year lease term for critically needed units to replace older fire
apparatus.
B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED):
The apparatus are tentatively set to replace Engine 3 at Kawailani and Engine 4 at Kaumana Fire Station.
This is to replace two front -line fire protection apparatus that are over twenty years old and resulting in
increasing repair and maintenance costs, as well as prolonged down times and unreliability. Anticipated
costs are $1,410,000 with interest over a five year lease term. Estimate lease cost is $23,500 per month or
$282,000 annually for both.
