SUBJECT:
Approve emergency purchase of a used 2002 Autocar refuse collection vehicle in an amount not to exceed $15,600.00 to replace vehicle # 23-031 that was damaged beyond repair.
SUMMARY:
The Public Works Department is seeking to purchase a used 2002 Autocar refuse collection truck from Sunbelt Waste Equipment for the amount of $15,600.00. This vehicle has very low miles and it is very similar to the trucks utilized within the current Solid Waste fleet. This vehicle will replace unit #23-031 that was deemed a total loss due to a fire.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Public Works Department recommends approval of this emergency purchase. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a low mile/hour used vehicle at a very reasonable price. The Fleet Maintenance technicians are very familiar with the truck and they have an inventory of repair parts for it.
ALTERNATIVES:
Do not approve the emergency purchase request.
