Through this process, staff has identified a 2008 Ford F750 Dump Truck (2008 Dump Truck) <br />in the City's Fleet that has reached the end of its useful life, as it requires repairs that will cost more than <br />its current value. <br />On October 14, 2019, staff issued a Notice Inviting Sealed Bids (2019 NIB) to purchase one new 2020 <br />Freightliner dump truck. This NIB was intended to replace a 2002 Ford F750 Dump Truck that had also <br />reached the end of its useful life cycle. On December 16, 2019, at staff's recommendation, the City <br />Council authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement to purchase one new 2020 Freightliner <br />dump truck for $143,336 from Golden Gate Truck Center (GGTC) of Oakland, CA. <br />Page 1 of 3 <br />City of Redwood City 1017 Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA. 94063 Tel: 650-780-7000 www.redwoodcity.ore <br />373 <br />
