Chief Cordonnier answered we've seen a seven and a half percent increase year after year but also on the back side of sales we're seeing a return.

Alderman Tuneberg read that there's a 3-4 year wait time.

Chief Cordonnier confirmed this package would be about a 4 year lead time before we could expect delivery.

Alderman Frost asked if although we're budgeting for this we're not actually expecting any dollars until we take delivery.

A. Wilkerson confirmed that's correct.

Alderman Beach asked if we're setting aside one fourth of the money each year so that the money is accumulated.
