OLD BUSINESS
ORDINANCE NO. O-3-24 (2nd Reading)
An ordinance to adopt Chapter 99: Piqua Historic Preservation Ordinance
Introduction: Kyle Hinkelman said over the last few weeks the staff met with Piqua Historic District
residents. There are some changes since the first reading. A few of the changes were to remove the
reference to landscaping and specify that the lighting was intended for residential properties only. There
may be a couple more changes before the final reading.
Commissioners Comments: Commissioner Hohman thanked Kyle Hinkelman for meeting with him and
clarifying this ordinance.
Public Comments: None
Action Taken: 2nd Reading
ORDINANCE NO. O-4-24 (2nd Reading)
An ordinance to amend Chapter 32: Boards and Commissions
Introduction: Kyle Hinkelman said there have been no changes since the first reading but there are
ongoing discussions about representation.
Commissioners Comments: Mayor Lee said he would like to see representation from the Historic District
on the new committee. Commissioner Vetter asked if more areas of the city were included in the Historic
Preservation area, if representation from those areas could be on the committee. Commissioner
Hohman stated that right now the Caldwell District is the only area that already has the designation.
Public Comments: Don Smith, president of the Caldwell Historic District, said he believes someone from
his district should be on the committee.
Action Taken: 2nd Reading
ORDINANCE NO. O-5-24 (2nd Reading)
An ordinance to amend Title XV: Land Usage, Piqua Development Code
Introduction: Kyle Hinkelman said there have been no changes from the previous reading. This
development code was first adopted last June. A year later there are a number of items that have
PIQUA CITY COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES | 2

changed, or we didn’t realize that they would be as impactful in the way that they are. The majority of
changes are relative to moving out the certificate of appropriateness and the historic regulations from
our code.
Commissioners Comments: None
Public Comments: None
Action Taken: 2nd Reading
NEW BUSINESS
ORDINANCE NO. O-6-24 (1ST Reading)
An ordinance to regulate burning activities
Introduction: Commissioner Hohman gave a presentation explaining each section of the ordinance he
was presenting. Presentation
Commissioners Comments: Commissioner Hohman read a statement of why he proposed this
ordinance. Commissioner Simmons said the penalties should be $1,500, $3,000, and $5,000.
Commissioner Simmons made a motion to increase the penalty and Mayor Lee seconded the motion.
Roll Call was taken and Mayor Lee, Commissioners DeBrosse, Hohman and Simmons voted Yah.
Commissioner Vetter voted nah. The motion to raise the penalty in O-6-24 passed.
Commissioner Simmons says he’s thinking about loopholes and thinks private property should not be
able to burn hazardous materials either. Commissioner Hohman suggested that Commissioner Simmons
write an ordinance to go along with this ordinance. Commissioner DeBrosse thanked Commissioner
Hohman for putting this ordinance together along with Paul Oberdorfer, Frank Patrizio, and any
department heads who weighed in. He also appreciated that all commissioners were given the
opportunity to weigh in.
Public Comments: Nancy Roof said that the EPA, RAPCA and BGSU needs to be aware of this ordinance.
Frank Patrizio said the ordinance does not prevent the burning of pallets. Nancy Roof said she regrets
hearing comments directed towards community members.
Dave Smith gave his opinion. Frank Patrizio interrupted him on more than one occasion to tell him
profanity was not permitted.
Kim Heisler said Commissioner Hohman did a great job and he’s on a good path. Ms. Heisler said it needs
a little more work as she feels the fines are too low. She said the word destructive she would like it
changed to hazardous. Ms. Heisler said the soil, air and water are okay but what about the people.
Commissioner Hohman discussed his reasoning for using the word “destructive”. Ms. Heisler said that
the word privately owned land should be removed.
Jeff Grimes said that the reference Commissioner Hohman made of “those people” are the ones that got
the burning stopped. Mr. Grimes suggested moving the fire training center.

PIQUA CITY COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES | 3

Nick Mahrt agreed with Jeff Grimes on the suggestion of moving the Fire Training Center. He said he sees
families with pets on the bike path and it doesn’t make sense to have fire training this close to the bike
path. Mr. Mahrt said he submitted a proposal to Mayor Lee about what the current location of the fire
training center could be used for and suggested a new location.
Alisha Lange addressed Commissioner Hohman and said that she has plenty of signatures to recall him.
Ms. Lange said she agrees with Kim Heisler’s comments. Alisha reported that she spoke with a
professional regarding the battery burning that took place in Piqua.
Eva Silvers stated many ways that we come into contact with smoke and chemicals on a daily basis. She
said if you go to a restaurant there’s smoke, manufacturers produce smoke, a person who smokes may
subject themselves to smoke when they get in their car, and chemicals are in all parts of our society now.
Eva said she finds the personal attacks made during public comments astonishing. She said that Toxic
Piqua started out with a good purpose.
Adam Seas said he has been busy investing money in his hometown. He told Commissioner Hohman that
he believes he’d win an election today if there was one. Adam said he had a chance to tour Lock 9 park
and it is bad ass. He said the community is tired of all the negativity.
Action Taken: 1st Reading
ORDINANCE NO. O-7-24 (1st Reading)
An ordinance repealing and replacing Piqua Municipal Code Section 30.01
Introduction: Jerry O’Brien said this ordinance gives the city manager permission to settle claims the
same as the competitive bidding process that is set by the ORC. That amount is currently $75,000. This
would give the city manager the same authority that he already has with other types of contracts.
Commissioners Comments: Commissioner DeBrosse asked for an example of what this would cover.
Jerry O’Brien gave an example as property damage that the city causes. Commissioner Vetter confirmed
that it doesn’t stop the city manager from bringing claims against the city to the commissioner’s
attention. Commissioner Hohman asked if there was any urgency, or if this was just house cleaning, to
which Jerry O’Brien said it is just house cleaning. Commissioner DeBrosse asked if it was in line with the
ORC and Jerry said it was.
Public Comments: None
Action Taken: 1st Reading
RESOLUTION NO. R-68-24
A resolution awarding a contract to M & T Excavating, LLC for the Ridge Street water main extension
project
Introduction: Kevin Krejny said he has come before the commission before for grant funding and now he
is coming with bids. On April 18, 2024, two bids were received for the Ridge Street Water Main Extension
Project. The lowest bid of $190,000 was provided by M & T Excavating out of Bradford. The project will
consist of the replacement of the existing water main, services and associated fittings from Grant Street
to South Street on Ridge Street. The water main size will be increased to the appropriate 8” residential
PIQUA CITY COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES | 4

size. There are 9 homes on that street. This was originally part of the Fox Drive tower project, but this
project did not get done when Fox Drive was completed so it was nominated for grant funding. The city
has received grant money to help with this project and the work has to be completed by the end of the
year, but he anticipates its completion by Halloween.
Commissioners Comments: Mayor Lee confirmed that 100,000 of it was grant funding and Kevin said yes,
about half. Commissioner Vetter asked if the Underground Utility Board had heard the proposal and if so,
he asked how they reacted. Kevin Krejny said yes, this has been on the list of potential projects since the
utility board started a year and a half ago, so they are well aware of it. They were made aware of the
award also. Commissioner Hohman asked what kind of grant this was, and Kevin Krejny replied that it
was a trickle down from Covid Relief funds that divided into development and water projects.
Public Comments: None
Action Taken: A motion was made by Commissioner Vetter to approve the resolution, and Commissioner
DeBrosse seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion was carried unanimously.
RESOLUTION NO. R-69-24
A resolution approving the Miami County 9-1-1 Final Plan for the Miami County Communications
Center
Introduction: Paul Oberdorfer said this resolution is needed to continue our services with the Miami
County Communication Center.
Commissioners Comments: Commissioner Vetter asked if this is the first time we have approved this.
Safety Services Director Rick Byron said this is the first time since 1989 that they have updated their plan.
Commissioner Vetter asked if this has a term to it. Rick Byron said this allows for us to continue using the
Miami County Communication Center for dispatch.
Public Comments: None
Action Taken: A motion was made by Commissioner Hohman to approve the resolution, and
Commissioner Simmons seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion was carried
unanimously.
CITY MANAGER’S REPORT
Mr. Oberdorfer announced that the Taste of the Arts will be May 17th on Main Street.
COMMISSIONERS COMMENT
Commissioner Vetter addressed several issues. He received several emails regarding recreational fires in
Piqua. Piqua does not have a specific ordinance and follows the fire code. This summer the City of Piqua
will review the Capital Improvement Projects (CIP). A meeting to discuss the Hance Pavilion will be held
May 16 at the YMCA. Commissioner Vetter asked the city manager if we have a target date for street
repair. He announced that this is clean air week and there will be a Town Hall on May 16. He expressed
his concern for appliances and mattresses being left by the curb. The city still needs help with spaying
and neutering cats. Lastly, he asked if there is a date for the hydraulic canal committee to meet again.

PIQUA CITY COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES | 5

Commissioner Simmons recited a quote from one of his favorite musicians. He addressed Commissioner
Hohman’s comment which referenced to “those people” and said it predates the YouTuber that came to
town.
Commissioner Hohman looked into the cannabis tax and how it benefits Piqua. The Ohio law regulates
the tax, and the city only receives income tax and a portion of the property tax. Commissioner Hohman
read a letter from Kathy Sherman who could not attend the meeting. Her letter was a show of support for
Paul Oberdorfer. She said she wanted to shine a light on him as he has had to make hard decisions to put
Piqua on the right path. Commissioner Hohman said that a concerned citizen asked whether Chief Rick
Byron’s position as Safety Services Director could be a conflict. Commissioner Hohman said that the
Safety Services Director is not directing a fire scene. He is overseeing operational control. He thanked Eva
Silvers for organizing a community clean up. He thanked Piqua Police Department, Paul Oberdorfer and
everyone who showed up. A citizen has concerns with our phone tree not directing citizens to the right
place. Commissioner Hohman said there is a very small group of negative people but if you ask the group
of people who have a vested interest in the community, they think the City Manager is doing a pretty
great job. Given the choice between these two groups, Commissioner Hohman said he stands with Paul
Oberdorfer and his ongoing record of benefiting the city.
Commissioner DeBrosse thanked the commission for excusing him at the last meeting. He said he did
watch RJ Monnier’s presentation on the utility office and thanked him and the entire Utilities Business
Office staff for their work. He said he knows they have to deal with some unhappy folks as his mom,
Shery DeBrosse, retired from the utility office. Commissioner DeBrosse thanked Kevin Krejny for bringing
back the CAC group and bringing them up to speed on where we are with ODNR. Kevin Krejny also
presented the CAC with some possible next steps. Citizens were concerned about the canal, Echo Lake,
Frantz Pond and Swift Run being lowered in anticipation of a major rain event and the ramifications if we
didn’t get the amount of rain and what the water would look like until we got rain to fill it back up. One
recommendation was to put in a measuring spot to see how much it was lowered and within a week or
so Kevin and his team had it up. He thanked the Fire Training Committee and said he feels pride that they
voluntarily put forth their time to help the community. Frank wished his father, Don DeBrosse, a Happy
Birthday.
Mayor Lee thanked Commissioner DeBrosse for initiating the Fire Training committee and Commissioner
Hohman for working on the ordinance restricting burning. He said we’ve got nothing to hide. Piqua prom
was last week, and Lehman prom is next weekend. The 4th of July celebration will be held at the Piqua
Center, and it should be a good time. He said the Piqua Center is recruiting the commissioners to sit in
the dunk booth. The planning commission application will be on the website tomorrow. Mayor Lee said
that you don’t have to like everything, but we have a city manager that does a good job. He supports Paul
Oberdorfer.
PUBLIC COMMENT
Eva Silvers thanked Paul Oberdorfer and his wife, Commissioner Hohman, Spencer Peltier, Crooked
Handle folks and others who came out to help with the clean-up. They got a lot done and were able to
see the old BMX tracks. She said it gave a chance for everyone to go out and see what this community
holds and why people are so vested. She listed multiple events she’s been involved in but said the intent
is because not everyone has time to look into every aspect. She said that is true in people’s personal lives,
the city commission and everyone who sits in a city seat. Eva said the reality is whatever transpired then
PIQUA CITY COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES | 6

has been rectified. She said that no city party had full knowledge of what took place. So, it is not logical to
cast blame on you when you are working on solutions. At some point you have to look at the intent and
motive of what’s being done. Eva said this is just an attack on anyone and everyone that could have had a
hand in it. Ms. Silvers gave credit to Commissioner Hohman and Commissioner DeBrosse for their efforts
toward a solution. Eva said everyone might not agree with the City Manager, but you won’t find another
city manager bring his wife out and pick up broken beer bottles and needles. Eva said he didn’t have to
do that, and he must care a little. She said she thinks it’s time for everyone to understand that there is a
fire committee working on it, the water testing has been done, and she thinks it time for citizens and
businesses to take a step back and say we’ve heard enough. Let the committee come to the decision that
they were chosen to do.
Jim Sheets gave a shout out to Danielle at the Headquarters Beauty Shop on McKinley. About a year ago
he started coming to meetings and wanted to become a commissioner. He became involved with a group
of people and there was a rift between some people. He talked about a business owner that asked him
about expanding to Piqua and he suggested that he watch some commission meetings. After watching
the meeting, the business owner changed his mind about opening a business here because of all of the
chaos. Jim said he would like to see both sides come together and hash out their differences. Mayor Lee
said he would love it and suggested the two sides come together at a Town Hall.
Kim Heisler said she has brought the valuation of the old Water Plant many times and asked that we ask
the county to reevaluate. Frank Patrizio said the city does not pay taxes. Law Director Patrizio also said
there is a lot of land with the property although he doesn’t believe it’s correct either. Ms. Heisler said as a
citizen it makes her wonder what the city has planned for that property.
ADJOURNMENT at 8:27 pm
A motion was made by Commissioner Hohman to adjourn, and Commissioner Vetter seconded the
motion. All approved and the motion was carried unanimously.

This Ordinance creates a new Ordinance – Chapter 99: Piqua Historic
Preservation Ordinance. The Planning Commission recommend approval in a
5-0 vote on April 10, 2024.
The creation of this Ordinance furthers the goal of the City of Piqua to become a
Certified Local Government (CLG). Working with the State Historic Preservation
Office (SHPO), this language was crafted to meet the requirements from SHPO
to become a CLG. The Ordinance does three main things – 1. Creates a new
consolidated boundary line for the Piqua Historic District, 2. Creates a process
and procedures for review of landmark designations and Certificates of
Appropriateness within the District and for landmarked structures, and 3.
Creates a separate City Historic Review Commission (CHRC).

INTRODUCTION

The City of Piqua has a rich history dating back to its Native American roots. The name
Piqua is derived from a Native American word meaning “man who arose from the
ashes” or “ashes to ashes”. The area was inhabited by various indigenous tribes,
including the Shawnee, Miami, and Delaware.
Fort Piqua was established in 1793 by General Anthony Wayne during the Northwest
Indian War, and the City of Piqua was founded in 1807 and incorporated in 1823.
Piqua's early industry was successful due to its location along the Miami River, which
provided power for mills and other industries. The city became known for its
manufacturing, including paper mills, foundries, and agricultural equipment.
The construction of the Miami and Erie Canal in the 1830’s further stimulated Piqua's
economy by providing a transportation route for goods and people. The canal
connected Piqua to other major cities in Ohio and beyond.
Piqua was a center of abolitionist activity in the mid-19th century. The town was a stop
on the Underground Railroad, and many residents were involved in the anti-slavery
movement.

FINAL: 5.21.2024
Piqua boasts several historic structures and landmarks that are still standing today,
including the Fort Piqua Plaza, which now houses a library and meeting spaces. The
Johnston Farm & Indian Agency provides insight into the area's early history and the
interactions between Native Americans and European settlers, as well as many others
on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Caldwell Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in
1985 and includes portions of North Main Street, Wayne Street, Downing Street,
Caldwell Street, West Ash Street, Greene Street, North Street, Mound Street, and Park
Avenue.
These areas contribute tremendously to the vibrancy of the downtown area, which is
why the City has made significant efforts to preserve their historical character, including
applying to be a Certified Local Government (CLG) with the State of Ohio, and
establishing these local guidelines and standards for renovation, rehabilitation, and
demolition.
The CLG program is a federal, state, and local partnership that promotes the
preservation of local historic resources by providing assistance to local communities
including funding (i.e., matching grants program) that can be used for a variety of
preservation projects. To become a CLG, the city must have the following:
•
•
•

•

A qualified commission of at least five members who designate historic properties
and review proposed changes to the historic environment;
An ordinance designed to protect historic resources and offer guidance to those
wishing to make changes to historic buildings, sites, and districts;
A procedure for identifying historic properties by which they can be surveyed and
recorded, designated locally, and nominated to the National Register of Historic
Places; and
A public participation program which invites and encourages citizens to
participate in the community's historic preservation program.

§ 99.02

PURPOSE

The Piqua Historic Registry (“Registry”) and the Piqua Historic District (the “District”)
shall be established by ordinance of the City Commission. The District shall include two
primary area designations – the Piqua-Caldwell Historic District, a previously designated
and authorized place on the National Historic Register and the Downtown Piqua Historic
District. The Registry shall include the District and locally designated landmarks.
New construction, renovation, rehabilitation, and even maintenance of a structure within
a historic district have so many variables that it is almost impossible to apply a strict set
of standards to all structures. Each structure may have been built for a different
purpose, in a different era, and/or with a different architectural style or theme that may
vary greatly from an adjacent structure or one that is in the same neighborhood but just

down the street. The purpose of this document is to provide a framework of design
guidelines that the City Historic Review Commission (CHRC) and staff can use when
reviewing an application for a Certificate of Appropriateness (COA), discussed later in
this document. These guidelines are not a substitute for any standards found in
applicable building or fire codes, or for those standards found in the City of Piqua
Development Code (Title XV).
Landmark Structures may also be subsequently added to the District registry by the
CHRC and this document creates an approval process and standards for authorization.

features with suitable materials and has achieved the stated goals
of the CHRC and the spirit and intent of the Secretary of the
Interior’s Standards and Guidelines.
a.
Materials that would have been used in historic construction
are encouraged and may be required to preserve significant
features. In some cases, modern materials exist which are
able to perform better in the weather and area not noticeably
different viewed from public right-of-way. These modern
equivalents may also be approved where the CHRC has
found their use appropriate and in fulfillment of preservation
goals.
b.
The CHRC and Community Services Director or his/her
designee have the authority to make minor adjustments to
the design standards of the City of Piqua Development Code
(Title XV) for any Piqua Historic District property where the
adjustment will achieve goals of historic preservation as
outlined by the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and
Guidelines.

Certificate of Appropriateness is required before any change of
any property within the district, including any demolition,
construction, reconstruction, or restoration of the exterior of a
building; erection of new signs: and any material alteration in,
Page | 8

FINAL: 5.21.2024

3.

4.

signage, exterior color, or external architectural features, may occur
on any property registered within the Piqua Historic District. Any
gradual change of a structure constituting a significant modification
must also receive a Certificate of Appropriateness to achieve
compliance.
A Certificate of Appropriateness is not required for the following:
a.
The ordinary maintenance or repair of any property that does
not involve a change in design, material, color, signage or
outer appearance. This includes in-kind replacement of
existing windows or doors;
b.
Any change that the Miami County Building Official
determines to be required for public safety because of an
unsafe condition;
c.
Interior arrangements within a building; and
d.
Where a building has been compromised and must be
temporarily secured. For example, a broken window must be
boarded or patched, or a temporary door installed until a
compliant door may be found. A Certificate of
Appropriateness for changes made for temporary security
must be sought within 30 days of any modification.
The Community Services Director or his/her designee has the
authority to review and approve minor work in the Piqua Historic
District. Minor work approvals will be reported to the CHRC and
includes:
a.
Any modification to an existing structure, previously
designated as not historically significant by the CHRC, that
the Community Services Director or his/her designee deems
to have no impact on any surrounding historically significant
structure. Modifications must be found by the Community
Services Director to be reasonably fitting with the character
of the Piqua Historic District.
b.
The construction of a new structure on a property within the
Piqua Historic District. To qualify as minor work, the new
construction must meet all standards of the City of Piqua
Development Code without any variance.

encouraged to select from historic color palettes appropriate
to the era of the Historic District. Applicants are required to
use their painting choices to highlight architectural features
of a building with use of accent colors and to avoid using the
same color over all surfaces of a facade. Applicants are
encouraged to select paint colors that do not match those of
Page | 9

neighboring structures. The Development Director may not
approve any fluorescent paint color as minor work;

Piqua Development Code (Title XV) without any variance
unless otherwise stated to require CHRC review; and
i.
Temporary installation of residential lights, art displays, signs
or decorations for a period of less than 60 consecutive days.
This does not include commercially zoned properties.
5.

required before proceeding with any work.
6.
Certificate Revisions. Minor revisions to an approved Certificate
of Appropriateness may be approved by the Community Services
Director following review consistent with this Ordinance.
7.
Certificate Expiration. An application submitted for a Certificate of
Appropriateness will expire if there is no activity within 60 days of
the issuance of the Certificate.
8.
Validity. A Certificate of Appropriateness remains valid for 180
calendar days. Construction of the change must be completed
before the expiration of the issued Certificate of Appropriateness.
The Community Services Director is authorized to grant, in writing,
an extension of a Certificate of Appropriateness for a period not
more than 180 calendar days. When requesting an extension of a
Certificate of Appropriateness, the applicant must provide the
Department with a letter stating the reason for the delay of project
completion. In no case will a Certificate of Appropriateness remain
valid for more than 12 months. Projects associated with expired
certificates must submit a new Certificate of Appropriateness
application and may be subject to denial.
F. Alternative Equivalent Compliance. Alternative equivalent compliance
is a procedure that allows an applicant for a COA, and other limited
applications, to propose unique design options, new materials, or new
technologies, as an alternative to a standard or guideline established in
Page | 10

FINAL: 5.21.2024
the City of Piqua Development Code provided it meets or exceeds the
intent of the design-related provisions. It is not a variance, waiver or
weakening of regulations; rather, this procedure permits an applicant to
suggest an alternative approach that is very specific to the project and that
is equal to or better than the strict application of a specific standard or
guideline. An approval of an alternative equivalent compliance shall apply
only to the specific site for which it is requested and does not establish a
precedent for assured approval of other requests.
An alternative equivalent compliance application can be obtained at the
Community Services Department. The application shall be reviewed
simultaneously with the COA application with the CHRC having the
authority to make a decision on both applications.
Decisions on an alternative equivalent compliance application shall be
based on consideration of the review criteria summarized as follows:
1.

The proposed alternative achieves the intent of the subject
standard or guideline to the same or better degree than the subject
standard or guideline;

2.

The proposed alternative achieves the goals and policies of the
comprehensive plan to the same or better degree than the subject
standard or guideline;

3.

The proposed alternative results in benefits to the community that
are equivalent to or better than compliance with the subject
standard or guideline; and

4.

The proposed alternative imposes no greater impacts on adjacent
properties than would occur through compliance with the specific
requirements of this Historic Preservation Ordinance or the
standards of Title XV – Development Code.

G. Historical Significance. For buildings and structures within the
boundaries of the Piqua Historic District, the CHRC shall determine if a
building is historically significant based on the criteria defined in
§99.03.12. If a structure is not determined to be historically significant by
a majority of the CHRC by vote, the property may be permitted to have
reduced requirements or have alternative equivalent compliance as
defined in §99.06.E.
H. Decision. Minutes of each meeting shall be kept and shared publicly after
they are formally approved. The CHRC shall render a written decision of
a majority of the members of the Commission without any unreasonable
delay after the close of a hearing, and in all cases, within forty-five (45)
Page | 11

FINAL: 5.21.2024
days after the close of the hearing. A copy of the decision and findings
shall be sent to the owner, applicant, Planning Commission, and City
Commission.
I. Appeal. In the event that the CHRC does not approve an application, the
applicant has the right to appeal that decision to the City of Piqua Board of
Zoning Appeals, pursuant to the City of Piqua Development Code (Title
XV).

A resolution authorizing a purchase order for a used aerial ladder truck and

Other:

In an effort to reinstate the ability of the Piqua Fire Department to
provide minimum aerial ladder service for firefighting and rescue to the
citizens of Piqua, and in working toward strategic fleet replacement, the
Fire Department intends to purchase a used ladder truck. This truck will
replace the apparatus that has been out of service since 2019.
The City of Piqua had an aerial ladder truck in continuous service from as
early as at least 1927 until 2019 when the previous aerial ladder was
removed from service due to mechanical failures. A new ladder was not
purchased at that time due to the cost of a replacement. Multiple grant
opportunities have been explored, applied for, and denied, leading to the
conclusion that there is no outside funding available for this purchase.
Even if funding were to be immediately available, a new aerial ladder
truck requires approximately one year to purchase and three years to
construct. The purchase of a used apparatus, immediately available, will
reinstate functionality as quickly as possible.
The ladder truck selected was constructed in 2001. The lifespan of this
vehicle as an emergency response apparatus is limited to an estimated 5
years. This time will allow for the specification, purchase, and
construction of a new aerial ladder apparatus to be in service before the
end of the decade, as local funding allows.
The total budget for the program is $320,000. The direct purchase cost
of the ladder truck is $250,000. The remaining $70,000 is for repairs,
upfitting costs, and training with the apparatus. Repairs and necessary
maintenance before the apparatus is placed in service are estimated at
$34,000. Equipment needed to return an additional apparatus to the
Piqua FD fleet including hose, nozzles, rescue equipment, air monitoring,
and radio are estimated at an additional $36,000. Any other funds

recognized from savings will be utilized for training our members as a
majority of our personnel have never used this type of apparatus before.
The cost per year of ownership, amortized over the expected lifespan, is
lower than the cost per year for a new apparatus. Maintenance costs for
this used apparatus during that time are, however, expected to offset a
portion of that difference. Approval of this resolution would allow the City
to purchase a ladder truck to be placed into service much more quickly
than any alternative option, at a reasonable expense. The rejection of this
resolution would continue to leave the city without the protection of an
aerial apparatus pending a future purchase of a new ladder truck.
PCO 34.19 Publication of Bids; Exceptions
(B) In unforeseen emergencies, delay would result in the
interruption of or detriment to the delay of pubic services, as determined
by the City Manager.
(C) The purchase consists of supplies or a replacement or
supplemental part or parts for a product or equipment owned or leased
by the city and the only source of supply is limited to a single supplier.
(E) In the sound judgement of the Purchasing Agent, subject
to approval of the City Manager, advertisement for bids for any specific
purchase would not be of any material benefit to the city.

The purchase of the aerial ladder truck will provide the
City of Piqua with basic ladder service for firefighting
and rescue.

1.

Approve the resolution to purchase and upfit a used aerial ladder
truck.

2.

Deny the resolution, delaying aerial ladder service capability for rescue
and firefighting by the Piqua Fire Department.

PROJECT TIMELINE The used ladder apparatus is expected to be purchased within days of
passage of this resolution. The apparatus would then be delivered to the
workshop of the selected emergency vehicle technician service for repairs
and maintenance. This portion of time is dependent on shop, technician,
and parts availability but is likely to be six to eight weeks. Once the
apparatus is delivered to the Piqua Fire Station, approximately two weeks
will be spent with intensive in-service training prior to emergency response
with the apparatus.
Once this apparatus is in service, and funding can be secured for the
purchase of a new ladder truck, planning must begin almost immediately to
develop the specifications for a replacement. If this replacement process is

not begun in the next year, this used ladder truck can be expected to fail to
be reliable for emergency response before a new ladder truck is
constructed and received.
STAFF Approve the proposed resolution.
RECOMMENDATION
REASON FOR SELECTING The aerial ladder truck proposed comes from the Clearcreek Fire District in
CONSULTANT/COMPANY Warren County, Ohio. Our members and our emergency vehicle technician
have reviewed the apparatus, the documentation of service records, and
estimated necessary repair costs to place this ladder truck into service for
Piqua. While this apparatus is not the same as the apparatus owned most
recently by the City of Piqua and does not match perfectly with what would
be ordered if buying a new truck, it has been deemed to be adequate to
meet the needs of a stop-gap measure until a new apparatus is ordered.
Other used apparatuses have been found available for purchase; none
have been located in the west-central Ohio area for facilitation of
inspection.
