Information

Request/Subject

Request to Advertise Invitation for Bids No. 121819-Replacement of Three (3) Sheriff's Office Patrol Vehicles

Background Information

The advertisement for three (3) new Ford Expedition SSVs would allow the County Fleet Division the ability to receive proposals from automobile suppliers and have the option to purchase up to three new units during a one-year period.

Evaluation

The vehicles mentioned in the agenda request will be needed in the fleet in the coming year for the Sheriff’s Office Patrol use. These vehicles would replace units (to be determined) that are costing a lot of money in repairs and fuel and are at or above 200,000 miles. Vehicles (to be determined) will be used as a “trade in” to prevent increasing the size of the fleet and/or will be disposed of at auction.

Conclusion

The vehicles that would be purchased from this agenda request would be assigned to the Sheriff’s Office Patrol to replace older vehicles.

Recommendation

The Public Works Department Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the advertisement of Invitation for Bids No. 121819 for the purchase of three (3) new Ford Expedition SSVs with installed equipment as outlined in the solicitation.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to authorize the advertisement of Invitation for Bids No. 121819 to purchase three (3) new Ford Expedition SSVs with installed equipment as outlined in the solicitation. (Steve Sanders)
