The Lake Johanna Volunteer Fire Department has requested that Arden Hills, Shoreview, and North Oaks approve the purchase of a one hundred foot aerial ladder truck from the American Fire Apparatus Company at 'an approximate bid of $134,000 This was the 22.1y bid received. Mr. Buresch, consultant indicated that a one hundred foot ladder truck is desirable and he estimated a cost of $75,000. Ladder trucks purchased by other suburban communities have cost less than $100,000 but Fire Chief Fischer doesn't feel these are satis- factory for our department and the communities to be served. The Council approved the concept of need for a one hundred foot aerial ladder truck for the Lake Johanna Fire Department subject to at least three bids being received on general area -wide specifications and designating someone as Arden Hills management representative for design specifications input.
