CITY OF
PUBLIC WORKS/UTILITIES
DEPARTMENT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City
Commission
FROM:
BY:
William Peck, Superintendent of Public Works
DATE: April 8, 2008
RE: FY
2007/2008 Vehicles Purchases
As a part of the City’s five (5) year Capital
Plan, the City staff is requesting the purchase of three (3) new vehicles during
the 2007/2008 fiscal year. Listed below,
please find a list of vehicles we wish to purchase this year. These vehicles will be purchased for a total
amount of $72,080.00 through the Florida Sheriff’s Association Bid # 067-15-0827
and assigned to the Public Works/Utilities and Parks and Recreation
Departments. These vehicles will replace vehicles that are scheduled for surplus
due to age, condition, and the cost of maintaining them for another year. Funds for these purchases will be provided
from 2007-08 FY Budget – Vehicle Maintenance Internal Service Fund 5013940-564770.
This year’s purchases include a pick-up truck to
be used in daily operations, and a new cargo van for Public Works/Utilities
Department. The purchase of the cargo
van for Public Works/ Utilities will allow the crew the ability to carry a complete load of inventory of parts and
tools for repair and maintenance of the City’s sewer and water system in the
cargo van without having the need to return to the compound for additional
materials. This will help them to finish
a project in a timely manner. In addition, this year’s purchases include a mid
size sedan for the Parks and Recreation Director. This vehicle is only a 6
cylinder car instead of an 8 cylinder Crown Victorias that we have usually bought
in the past. Therefore, it is a much cheaper
vehicle. Once the new vehicles have been
received, we will bring back to the Commission a list of vehicles and equipment
that we recommend to be declared surplus and sold at an auction or disposed of
in another manner.
