<br />L /{l-/ <br /> <br />REPORT <br /> <br />To the Honorable lVIayor and City Council <br />From the tit . Mana er <br /> <br />October 24, 2005 <br /> <br />Subject <br />Purchase of Police Interceptor Sedans <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />By Motion approve the purchase of seven (7) police sedans in the amount of $159,908.56 from <br />S&C Ford of San Francisco, California under the cooperative purchasing agreement of the City <br />and County of San Francisco's bid #ITSF05000318. <br /> <br />Background <br />Redwood City's Fleet Replacement Program is designed to provide a structure for evaluating <br />vehicles and equipment in order to replace them at the most economically advantageous point <br />in their life cycle. At pre-described intervals, vehicles and equipment undergo a thorough <br />evaluation, including but not limited to, age, mileage, condition, maintenance history, downtime, <br />anticipated future repairs, usage and vehicle capabilities. <br /> <br />The total number of police sedans in use is 32. All seven of these vehicles are scheduled <br />replacement vehicles for police sedans currently in use in the Police Department, and all meet <br />the City's fleet replacement criteria for police sedans. If the City Council approves this purchase, <br />delivery of these new police sedans will take approximately 120-150 days. The ordering cut off <br />date is November 29, 2005. <br /> <br />Alternative <br />1. Council could deny this purchase. <br /> <br />2. Direct staff to solicit bids on our own, however this would probably not be cost effective <br />since the unit price from S&C Ford is the same unit price as last year's patrol vehicles. <br /> <br />Fiscal Impact <br />Funds for the purchase of the seven vehicles were approved and appropriated by the City <br />Council in the Fiscal Year 2005/06 Equipment Replacement Fund Budget in the amount of <br />$183,240.00. <br /> <br />~~ í3~ -' <br />La Barwacz <br />Public Works Superintendent <br /> <br />Peter Ingra~J <br />Public Works Services Director <br /> <br />@ILl ¡ <br /> <br />EctËverett <br />City Manager <br /> <br />Attachment: None <br />
