AGENDA REPORT
DV:
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Dave Klotzle, City Engineer/ Public Works Director
DATE: October 30, 2013 (CC Meeting of 11/06/13)
SUBJECT: Consider Procurement of Maintenance Vehicles
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Department utilizes the two trucks described below to perform street
maintenance supervision, construction inspection, crossing guard supervision and
parking enforcement activities on a daily basis.
Truck No. Description Mileage
27 2001 Ford Ranger Extra Cab 80,000
Public Works Superintendent/Inspector
30 2001 Ford Ranger Extra Cab 65,000
Crossing Guard Supervisor/Parking Enforcement
Truck No. 27 is currently out of service and in need of a transmission repair at an
estimated cost of $3,000. The Public Works Superintendent/Inspector is currently
driving a spare truck. Truck No. 30 has required increased maintenance services due
to its age and mileage. The current estimated value of each truck is $2,300.
Staff proposes to replace both truck No. 27 and No. 30 with two 2014 Ford F-150, two-
wheel drive extended cab trucks. The trucks can be purchased from Downtown Ford in
Sacramento by piggy-backing on the State of California's current fleet vehicle
purchasing contract at a price of $23,500 each including tax and delivery. Staff
obtained price quotes for the trucks from Galpin Ford in North Hills, CA ($24,500) and
Vista Ford in Oxnard ($30,200). A price quote was requested from Simi Valley Ford but
that dealer did not have any vehicles in stock that matched the City's requirements.
Staff proposes to surplus truck No. 27 at auction, and keep truck No. 30 in service as a
spare vehicle to be used when the regular maintenance vehicles are being serviced.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is $50,000 allocated in the adopted FY 2013/14 budget for Public Works vehicle
replacement using the equipment replacement fund. This budgeted amount was
originally intended to be used to purchase a maintenance truck to replace truck No. 66,
an F-450 diesel truck, which was in need of an exhaust retrofit to be in compliance with
California Air Resources Board requirements. The retrofit would cost more than the
truck's value; therefore truck No. 66 was replaced with a new F-250 truck.
On June 19, 2013, the City Council approved an amendment to the FY 2012/13 budget
appropriating additional equipment replacement funds for the F-250 truck purchase
prior to adoption of the FY 2013/14 budget.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Direct staff to purchase two (2), 2014 F-150 pickup trucks at an estimated cost of
$47,000, using the $50,000 equipment replacement funds currently appropriated and
available in the FY 2013/14 budget.
