Information

Request/Subject

Request to Advertise Invitation for Bids No. 111518-Purchase of Three (3) New Ford Expedition SSVs for Sheriff's Office detective use.

Background Information

The advertisement of Invitation for Bids No. 111518 for three new Ford Expedition SSVs would allow the County Fleet Department the ability to receive proposals from automobile suppliers and have the option to purchase up to three (3) new units, by June 1, 2019.

Evaluation

The vehicles mentioned in the agenda request will be needed in the fleet in the coming year for the Sheriff’s Office detective use. These vehicles would replace units B-134 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe 4x4 with 219,445 miles, B-119 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe 4x4 with 247,190 miles, and B-136 2004 Chevrolet Tahoe 4x4 with 142,594 miles that is costing a lot of money in repairs and fuel. Vehicles B-134, B-119 and B-136 will be used as a “trade-in” to prevent increasing the size of the fleet and 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 for detective use.

Recommendation

The Public Works Division Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the advertisement of Invitation for Bids No. 111518 for the purchase of three (3) new Ford Expedition SSV units with all of the equipment installed except radios for the Sheriff’s Office.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to authorize the advertisement of Invitation for Bids No. 111518 to purchase three (3) new Ford Expedition SSV units with installed equipment. (Steve Sanders)
