6.B.

Regular City Council Meeting

Meeting Date:: 06/23/2021
Department Head:: Angel Ramirez
Submitted By:: Enrique Lopez, Assistant Fire Chief, Fire Department

Action Requested:

Motion

ITEM:

Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding an increase of the purchase price of an ambulance above the price City Council approved in September of 2020. (Angel Ramirez, Fire Chief)

SUMMARY:

Previously, the purchase of an emergency vehicle (2021 Dodge Ram 4500 Ambulance) was approved for the Fire Department at the meeting held on September 9, 2020, for the amount of $211,280.00 from GL Account 340-341-90000. Due to a late modification, our vendor, RepublicEVS, informed us there was a slight increase in the final cost of our 2021 Dodge Ram 4500 ambulance. The cost of the emergency vehicle will increase by $701.00 from the original price previously approved.

Due to the council approving this item at a previous meeting by waiving the procurement code as a unique vehicle with specialized equipment and for it not to exceed the price of $211,280.00, staff would like to formally request the ratification of purchase order 2021-00000696, RepublicEVS in the amount of $701.00.

RECOMMENDATION / SUGGESTED MOTION:

I MOVE TO RATIFY THE $701.00 INCREASED PRICE TO PURCHASE THE AMBULANCE AS PRESENTED.
