File Number: 20-238 <br />replacement vehicles specifications for Fiscal Years 2018 and 2019. Additionally, equipment is <br />sometimes deferred if the existing stock is in good running condition, has low mileage/usage, or <br />perhaps if a new product specification is coming in a future model year. In the current Fiscal <br />Year, the City has already purchased $1.1 million in vehicles and equipment and has encumbered <br />$1.3 million for vehicles and equipment for a total year-to-date amount of $2.4 million in vehicle <br />and equipment purchases. Adding this request for approval, the City will expend a total of $2.8 <br />million for vehicles and equipment in Fiscal Year 2019-20. <br />Analysis <br />Sourcewell (formally known as the National Joint Powers Alliance - NJPA) is a municipal <br />contracting agency that creates cooperative contract purchasing solutions on behalf of over <br />50,000-member entities including government, education and non-profit agencies nationwide. <br />Utilizing Sourcewell, staff procured a bid from National Auto Fleet Group located in Watsonville, <br />CA for the Streets and Facilities trucks; procured a bid from Altec, a national company with a <br />local office in Dixon, CA for the Plant Maintenance crane truck; and procured a bid from Peterson <br />Trucks, Inc. located in San Leandro for the Collections rodder truck (chassis only - the existing <br />mounted equipment will be placed onto the new chassis). <br />The two trucks will be Fords, which a majority of the City’s light-duty vehicles are. All of the crane <br />trucks purchased in the past few years have been Altec’s, and the large hauling truck purchased <br />last year for paving operations was an International. Having a consistent fleet make-up helps keep <br />maintenance costs in check by being able to purchase equipment parts in quantity. <br />Budget Authority <br />The Vehicle Purchasing Account 690-16-002-7510 has a balance of $215,293.99. Staff requests <br />an additional appropriation of $237,948.64 from the Equipment Repair and Maintenance Fund <br />balance to the Equipment Repair and Maintenance Fund to cover the remaining cost of the <br />replacement vehicles. Combined, these funds will cover the total cost of the vehicles of <br />$453,242.63 <br />ATTACHMENT <br />Attachments to Staff Report <br />·Equipment Quotes (4) <br />Page 2 City of San Leandro Printed on 6/10/2020 <br />750
