REPORT TO SHASTA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS

BOARD MEETING DATE:  January  9, 2018
CATEGORY:  Consent - Public Works-11.

SUBJECT:

Facilities Management Vehicles – Award Purchases

Supervisorial District No. :  All

DEPARTMENT CONTACT:  Pat Minturn, Public Works Director, (530) 225-5661

STAFF REPORT APPROVED BY:  Pat Minturn, Public Works Director

RECOMMENDATION

Take the following actions: (1) Award the purchase of two pickup trucks to Downtown Ford Sales of Sacramento, California for a total price of $73,602.76 (including tax and delivery) under the California Multiple Award Schedules (CMAS) State Contract # 1-16-23-20A; and (2) approve and authorize the purchase of the pickup trucks under the CMAS state contract.

SUMMARY

Two new pickup trucks are proposed for Facilities Management.

DISCUSSION

The Facilities Management Division maintains County buildings and facilities.  Two pickup trucks have reached the end of their service life.  Specifications were circulated and three quotes were received.  Downtown Ford Sales of Sacramento provided the lowest quote under the CMAS State Contract # 1-16-23-20A.  CMAS contracts are competitively procured at the state level and thereby satisfy competitive procurement requirements.

ALTERNATIVES

The Board may decline to purchase the new trucks. The existing vehicles would remain in service.  Maintenance and reliability costs would likely accrue.

OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT

County Purchasing has approved the purchases. The County Administrative Office have reviewed this recommendation.

FINANCING

Adequate funds to replace the vehicles are included in the Adopted FY 2017/18 Facilities Management Budget.  There is no additional General Fund impact.
