Piggyback of Lake County Contract 12-0806B for Purchase of Protective Clothing & Related Budget Amendment #14-042 Introduction: The piggyback of Lake County Contract 12-0806B and budget Amendment #14-042 provide for purchase of protective clothing from Bennett Fire Products Co., Inc. in the amount of $2,074 for a newly hire Firefighter Paramedic. Budget Impact: Budget Amendment 14-042 increases the Fire Department's Machinery & Equipment/Equipment Other account #001-0310-522.67-35 and decreases funding in the Fire Department's Operating Supplies account #001-0310-522.52-00 to accommodate this capital purchase. BA #14-042 Explanation of Request: This item seeks City Commission approval to transfer funding for costs associated with protective clothing purchase for a newly hire Firefighter Paramedic. Up until FY 14, protective clothing replacements used to be budgeted in the operating supplies account; however, a budget amendment is required due to the increased costs of the garments over the last several years making this acquisition a capital expense for the City. This budget amendment will provide sufficient funding in a capital (as opposed to operating) account for the City to acquire the necessary gear for the new Firefighter Paramedic.
