Analysis: In January of 2000, Specifications for new Public Works Vehicles were developed and Requests for Bids were sent to eleven interested bidders. In addition, the City advertised in the local newspapers. Three sealed bids were received, then opened on February 24, 2000. City Council awarded the bid to Wondries Fleet Division of Alhambra, California on April 25, 2000. The approved bidder has agreed to sell the City this 2001 replacement vehicle with no increase in price over the City’s previous purchase. This is considered a "piggyback" purchase and is standard within the industry.
Fiscal Impact: Funds in the amount of $25,000 were allocated in the current (FY 00-01) budget for replacement of this vehicle. At this time, Staff is requesting an additional appropriation of $1,388 to complete the purchase.
