SUBJ: PROPOSED MOTION: "The City Council approves the donation of the Chanhassen Fire Department Hazardous Materials Trailer and CFD. Approval of this item requires a simple majority vote of those City Council members present. BACKGROUND The Chanhassen Fire Department (CFD) acquired a HazMat trailer through a donation from the Chanhassen Lions. The City of Chanhassen and other Carver County communities and Carver County cooperate on HazMat training and deployment. The Chanhassen Fire Department would like to donate this trailer and a few equipment items to Carver County, for storage in Victoria. The trailer will still be used in Chanhassen, but the transfer would free up storage space and makes logistical sense for the CFD. The Chanhassen Lions have no objections to the donation.

The majority of the HazMat equipment in this trailer is purchased and owned by Carver County. A list of equipment purchased or acquired by CFD is attached. CFD membership on the HazMat Team has changed, which presented difficulties in maintaining and calibrating equipment. Ownership by Carver County will enable Risk & Emergency Management to better maintain equipment and allow relocation of the trailer to other communities in the County.
