HomeMy WebLinkAboutNotice of Award for Sewer Vacuum Truck_3 Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: John Alston Water/Sewer Operations Superintendent Craig Woolard Public Works Director SUBJECT: Award bid for Sewer Vacuum Truck FY15 Capital Improvement Program Project No. WW26 MEETING DATE: 7/14/14 AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent Agenda RECOMMENDATION: Award bid of the Sewer Vacuum Truck in the amount of $369,323.00 to Titan Machinery. BACKGROUND: The FY15 Wastewater Capital Improvement Program (CIP) plans for the replacement of the Sewer Vacuum Truck. The current truck was purchased new in FY05 and is used daily to safely vacuum soil from around ours and other utilities as well as removing debris from sewer mains. We received one bid for the Sewer Vacuum Truck from Titan Machinery for $369,323.00. UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission. FISCAL EFFECTS: This item is in the FY15 Wastewater CIP and budget. $365,000 was budgeted for the Sewer Vacuum Truck. The $4,323.00 overage is due to the bid requirement to send a mechanic to the factory to learn how to repair this truck and purchasing the 2nd year of warranty as required by the City. We will be selling the current truck through a bid process on PublicSurplus.com and the money from the sale will more than cover the bid overage.
