SOLE SOURCE WORKSHEET
Sole source purchases are defined as clearly and legitimately limited to a single supplier. Sole source
purchases are normally not allowed except when based upon strong technological grounds such as
operational compatibility with existing equipment and related parts or upon a clearly unique and cost
effective feature requirement.
Requisition Item: 2005 Peirce Arrow XLT 105' Ladder Truck Requisition No.
Prior Purchase Order Number (if item had been approved previously): work was authorized on the repair ofthe American
Lafrance Ladder Truck.
1. Please describe the items and its function: The 2005 Peirce Arrow XLT 105' Ladder Truck will be used as a
reserve ladder truck by the fire department This ladder truck will be placed in service when our main ladder truck is out of service
for repairs Having the reserve ladder truck will help the City of Pasco and the first department to maintain the WSRB fire insurance
rating of a 3 and will help to keep the fire insurance premiums low for the residents and business community.

Please be specific.
The City of Pasco entered into an agreement with Firetrucks Unlimited and Ladder Towers to refurbish our American
Lafrance Ladder Truck for a cost of $417,000.00. Upon further inspection of the American Lafrance they found another
$50,000.00 in additional work that we have not contracted with them to complete. This additional work would bring the
total cost to refurbish the American LaFrance Ladder Truck to $467.000.00. After meeting with Firetrucks Unlimited it
was determined that they could provide the City of Pasco with a 2005 Pierce Arrow XLT 105' Ladder Truck that will
pass all the third -party tests for the anent of $349.000.00.
