CITY OF COLTON <br />AGENDA REPORT <br />FOR COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 15, 2000 <br />TO: HONORABLE MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL <br />APPROVAL: HENRY T. GARCIA, CITY MANAGE <br />FROM: AL HOLLIMAN, FINANCE DIRECTOR <br />SUBJECT: AWARD A CONTRACT FOR TWO % TON PICK-UP TRUCKS FOR THE ELECTRIC <br />DEPARTMENT TO CREST CHEVROLET IN THE AMOUNT OF $44,527.30 <br />DATE: FEBRUARY 7, 2000 <br />BACKGROUND <br />The City Council approved four vehicles for the Electric Department in the 99-00 fiscal year budget. At <br />the Council meeting of December 7, 1999, the City Council awarded a bid for various pick-up trucks for <br />the Street and Park Divisions to Crest Chevrolet. The % ton pick-up specified in this bid for the Street <br />Division is the same pick-up that the Electric Department is requesting to purchase. <br />DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS <br />The City of Colton can tag on to this bid and purchase two additional pick-ups for the same price. The <br />Bid Analysis from the December 7" City Council meeting is attached for your information. The 3/ ton <br />pick-ups requested by the Electric Department are Item #4 on the Bid Analysis. <br />ALTERNATIVES <br />Go out to competitive bid, which will delay the purchase of these vehicles for the Electric Department. It <br />is also highly unlikely that a more favorable price for the trucks would be obtained. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT <br />City Council appropriated the funds in the FY 99-00 budget for the Electric Department in account <br />number 520-8000-8004-4910-010 1. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT <br />None <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends City Council award a contract for two % ton pick-ups for the Electric Department to <br />Crest Chevrolet in the amount of $44,527.30. <br />Report prepared by Mary J.
