ITEM:

Discussion and possible directions to staff on any and all matters regarding authorization to purchase a new Chevy Colorado, 4x2 truck for the Department of Public Works, Water Division. (Manuel Rojas, Assistant Public Works Director)

SUMMARY:

Staff seeks approval for purchase of a new Chevy Colorado, 4x2 truck for Water Division.  Subject truck would be replacing a current vehicle, which the Division has been experiencing increase maintenance cost.  Staff contacted Midway Chevrolet Nissan Isuzu Truck from Phoenix, Arizona.  They are under state contract for subject purchase.  We also contacted Fisher Chevrolet in Yuma, Arizona and the local vendor provided a quote  of $25,043.17 which is $1,276.13 less than the state contract.  Under San Luis City Code-Purchasing Section 36.01(H), City Council may waive formal purchasing procedures.  Here as shown by the state contract the bidding process is not likely to result in a lower. price.  Staff requests waiver of the formal purchasing requirements  and recommends the approval of vehicle. The vehicle was approved in the budget for fiscal year 2017-2018.
 

RECOMMENDATION / SUGGESTED MOTION:

Discussion and possible directions to staff only, no action.
