Alderman Clemons

At $25,080; at .57 cents per mile the break-even point would be 44,000 miles. The Ford Taurus had 80,000 on
it at the end of its life with the city so you could say that the cost that we are paying is for about half of the life
of the vehicle if we assume that we will get similar use out of the new Fusion. The question then becomes
what about maintenance. | assume that these come with a manufacturer's warranty?

Ms. Peek

| would assume so as well.

Ms. Peek
Yes.
Vice Chairman Cookson

So you do have some sort of historical information that says this is how much we paid for mileage? That would
serve uS aS a good barometer. | mean if you are spending $25,000 in mileage reimbursement then it
potentially could make sense to purchase a new vehicle.

mean it’s clear that rust didn’t happen overnight and nothing was done so we are changing the oil but not even
addressing obvious problems. | find that tremendously weird.

Mr. Kooken

| would like to point out that of the work orders showed 35 labor hours at about $900 and that was for rust
repair in 2014 and that was repaired so it could pass the state inspection back then and the pictures you saw
today are new pictures where that repaired rust is kind of out of control.

Alderman Clemons

What exactly are we replacing, the whole light fixture itself or just the lights?
Mr. Kooken

It’s the mounting post and the actual lights themselves.

Alderman Siegel

Are we using 4,000K lights in this?

Mr. Kooken

They are using the same as on the Main Street sidewalk so | don’t believe those are 4,000K; | would have to
follow-up and provide you with that information.

ON THE QUESTION

Alderman Clemons

Is this something that we have done in the past?
Mr. Kooken

Yes, | believe that the rate that it is being done at is the same as it was a year ago.

Alderman Siegel

Just a brief comment, it is the same rate but | would also like to note that unlike in the past, the breakdown
between Parks & Rec and Wastewater is correct this time. We are not trying to soak the wastewater fund and
that used to happen so it’s Kosher.

Alderman Caron

| was going to ask the same question that Alderman O’Brien asked. | think it’s important that we get the best
that we can. My concern is the 34-week turn-a-round and in the meantime if we have any major breakdowns
then it’s going to cost us even more money. | also understand Alderman Siegel’s concern but my concern is
having staff being stuck in the elevator for two or three hours.
