Your local newspaper
Huron East has submitted a bid fora used tanker to be into service withthe Brussels Fire Department,
passing a motion at council’s Jan. 26
meeting.
The deadline for the bid was
Friday for the tanker put up for sale
by Tiny Twp. This would be
replacing the 1974 tanker in
Brussels that was scheduled to be
replaced in 2012.
After an inspection was conducted
by a member of the Brussels Fire
Department, the tanker was deemed
to be in good shape, leading to the
request by Huron East fire chief
Marty Bedard to submit a bid.
This does, however, fly in the face
of an earlier decision made by
Huron East council to purchase only
new vehicles for its emergency
services departments.
Councillor Alvin McLellan, who
championed the idea of buying used
emergency vehicles earlier asked
several questions inquiring as to
what had changed since that would
make the purchase of a used fire
tanker acceptable now. McLellan mentioned issues suchas old wiring in a used truck and the“buying of someone else’s problem.”Bedard agreed, it is a risk, but withthe poor state of the 1974 tanker in
Brussels, he said this move would
help the municipality to buy a few
extra years before having to
purchase an entirely new tanker.
“You take a gamble with used
vehicles,” Bedard said.
McLellan said that he supported
the idea, but he also supported the
idea months ago, when it was his
suggestion and it was shot down by
the rest of council.
“I’m not going to speak against
the idea,” he said. “I’m just throwing
out what was thrown at me.”
Brussels fire chief Murray
McArter says that the 1974 tanker
would need significant brake repairs
before its annual inspection this year
and a crack in the truck’s frame
would also have to be repaired.
Bedard said that while the
purchase of this tanker would be a
“band-aid fix,” it would give the
municipality a chance to stagger the
purchase of its emergency vehicles
and not have to buy two or three in
the same year.The 1974 tanker was purchased in2004 for $2,800, leading deputy-mayor Bernie MacLellan to say thatthe tanker “doesn’t owe themunicipality anything.”
Another concern that was raised
when the issue of buying used
vehicles was first mentioned was the
transmission, as older vehicles tend
to have manual transmissions,
something that is being phased out
in newer emergency vehicles.McArter said that would not be aconcern as all but four members ofhis department are licensed to driveemergency vehicles with manualtransmissions and the remaining
four are in the process of becoming
licensed.
The question of how much the
municipality should bid was also a
hot one after Bedard suggested
$8,500.
While the cost was debated for ashort time, MacLellan said that$8,500 is generally what themunicipality budgets to spend on anemergency vehicle per year forsafety testing and maintenance, so if
Huron East got one year out of the
new tanker, without having to repair
it, the municipality will have broken
even.
Council voted to submit a bid
before the Friday deadline.
