Resolution accepting the quote from A.F. Standby Systems in the amount of $35,200 for a new 60KW Generator and new 400 AMP Transfer Switch for Fire station 6.  The Fire Department has requested an increase in the capacity of the generator and automated switch gear to provide emergency power service to the entire firehouse.  This project will expand the service capabilities of the Fire Department to be able to respond to surrounding new development. This project also allows for continuous emergency operations and as a backup staging area during emergency events such as hurricanes. This expansion allows for a greater number of Fire Stations to remain in service during an emergency event to meet the growing demand from population and business communities. Fire Station No.  6 was abandoned during the last storm due to losing power.  Funds available in the Fire/EMS Impact Fees Fund. 

Recommendation:  Public Works Director recommends adoption of the Resolution.
