Preventative Maintenance
Fleet Services schedules and performs preventative maintenance on City assets. Preventive maintenance is intended to keep vehicles and equipment in optimal working condition and minimize breakdown and repair.

Equipment Service and Repair
Fleet mechanics perform repair services in-house whenever possible on occasions of malfunction or breakdown. Local vendors are utilized when outside repairs are warranted. Fleet Management schedules recalls with manufacturer-certified repair service centers.

Acquisition and Disposal
Equipment is purchased and disposed of based on a 6-year Asset Management Program and an Equipment Life Expectancy Chart. Fleet Services staff makes every effort to obtain equipment that will be economical in operation, low in maintenance costs, and able to produce a good return upon resale. Vehicles and equipment due for retirement are auctioned by local vendors, and proceeds are utilized to assist in covering replacement costs.
