Commission Meeting Date: 05/31/2022
Requesting Department: Department of Fire -
Rescue
Sponsored By:
District Impacted: All
Type: Resolution
Subject: Donation of Vehicle - Government of Grand Turk
Purpose of Item:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution
authorizing the donation of one (1) 1999 Pierce Dash fire engine to the Government of
Grand Turk. Said property has been deemed beyond viable use for City purposes and
its donation to Grand Turk will greatly aid them in providing fire protection services to
the residents and visitors of the Island.
Background of Item:
The City of Miami's Department of Fire Rescue ("Fire") has one (1) 1999 Pierce Dash
fire engine, Unit #P0063, VIN#4P1CTO2SOYA000063, with an approximate auction
value of $2,500 that has been deemed beyond viable use for City purposes and
categorized as "Category A" surplus stock pursuant to Section 18-82(a) of the City of
Miami Procurement Ordinance. Consequently, Fire wishes to donate this surplus
vehicle to the Government of Grand Turk who has agreed to accept said donation and
take sole ownership of said vehicle.
The Government of Grand Turk is in the process of establishing a fire department that
will serve the citizens and visitors of the island. The island of Grand Turk is 6.9 square
miles and has a population of approximately 5,000 residents. Currently the only fire
apparatus on the island is assigned to the international airport and this apparatus must
remain at the airport while the airport is operational. This requirement renders the
remainder of the island without adequate fire protection and this dire situation has been
exacerbated by a series of recent arson incidents. Lacking the ability to extinguish them,
these fires ultimately destroyed several of the island's local businesses and properties.
As the island attempts to recover from a significant financial hardship caused by
COVID-19 travel restrictions, it is currently unable to fund the purchase of a fire
apparatus. Consequently, the donation of this vehicle will help to provide much needed
fire protection for the island.
