Scissor Lift <br />Description: A scissor lift for safely reaching high areas within the facilities and to <br />work safely on large trucks and equipment. <br />Analysis of Need/Justification: The scissor lift would make working on large trucks <br />and equipment much safer. When working on the large dump trucks, street sweeper, <br />fire trucks, wheel loader and vac truck many times, staff have to stand on a 10-foot <br />ladder while holding parts and tools. This lacks safety measure to prevent falling and <br />does not comply with OSHA regulations. The scissor lift would help other public <br />works divisions access parts and supply storage on the mezzanine areas as well as <br />give employees and vendors better access to higher up repairs when necessary. This <br />lift would reduce cost for future building repairs, upkeep, and yearly inspections. This <br />lift will be used in all city facilities. <br />Alternatives: Risk safety of employees while working in high reach areas with <br />ladders. Rent scissor lift when needed which leads to longer lead times on repairs. <br />Rent to own scissor lift. <br />Budget and Funding: <br />Source <br />Amount <br />Equipment Improvement Outlay Fund <br />$ 21,000 <br />TOTAL <br />$ 21,000 <br />CIP Section: Equipment <br />
