Approval of and authorization to use of Sales Tax Capital Improvement Funds to remount an existing Horton Ambulance (2425), replace damaged components, and repair existing body damage
End
Background:
The Fire Department is requesting approval to remount the existing Horton Ambulance patient compartment, replace damaged components, and repair existing body damage at a total cost of $192,500.00. Funding for this purchase is budgeted and available through the Sales Tax Capital Improvement Fund (STCI) as outlined in Budget Amendment #27.
Unit 2425 was involved in a motor vehicle collision while transporting a patient in January 2026. Following evaluation of the damage, the cab and chassis were determined to be structurally damaged beyond repair. However, the patient compartment (ambulance box) remained suitable for reuse through a remount process onto a new cab and chassis.
Remounting the ambulance provides significant cost savings compared to the purchase of a new ambulance while helping maintain an adequate fleet of reliable ambulances to respond to emergencies within the City of Broken Arrow.
Industrial Truck Equipment in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, has been identified as the lowest responsible bidder among known vendors that routinely perform ambulance remount services. Pricing is based on cooperative purchasing rates available through Sourcewell.
Cost: $192,500.00
Funding Source: STCI
Requested By: Jeremy Moore, Fire Chief
