Fleet maintenance

The Fleet Maintenance Division increases productivity and curbs costs by using the most efficient resources to keep the City’s fleet in a constant state of repair to provide safe and reliable vehicles and equipment.

The Fleet Maintenance Division is performed by a person who manages the maintenance, repair of City vehicles and heavy equipment assigned to the City’s fleet, which also includes Fire Department vehicles.
With more than 24 vehicles and equipment that must be maintained, the Division utilizes a new computer program to be more efficient, perform preventative maintenance schedules to extend longevity and improve performance, as well as safety levels.

A variety of equipment is now being used in the maintenance shop to perform regular and preventative maintenance.  The City installed a vehicle lift in the main bay of the new public works building which was constructed in 2005 and diagnostic equipment which was purchased in 2006 used to diagnose malfunctions of vehicles and equipment that are not easily detectable to the naked eye.
