| Amendment No. 1 to Contract No. 111518-1 with McSpadden Ford for the purchase of four (4) new Ford Expedition SSVs for Sheriff's Patrol to extend the contract date through October 1, 2019. |
| Background Information |
On February 19, 2019, the Gila County Board of Supervisors approved Contract No. 111518-1 with McSpadden Ford for the purchase of four (4) New Ford Expedition SSVs. Fleet Management would like to extend the contract date through October 1, 2019, due to the delay of the upfitting requirements the vehicles are not deliverable by the previous requested date
The vehicles mentioned in the agenda request will be needed in the fleet in the coming year for the Sheriff’s Office for patrol officer use. These vehicles would replace units B-107 2006 Ford Expedition 4x4 with 234,711 miles, B-116 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe 4x2 with 171,785 miles, B-127 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe 4x2 with 208,553 miles, and B-114 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe 4x2 with 197,600 miles that is costing a lot of money in repairs and fuel. Vehicles B-107, B-116, B-127 and B-114 will be used as a “trade in” to prevent increasing the size of the fleet and will be disposed of at auction. |
| Evaluation |
| The original contract term for Contract No. 111518-1 with McSpadden Ford for the purchase of four (4) New Ford Expedition SSVs was from February 19, 2019, to June 1, 2019. The Public Works Department Director would like to extend the contract end date from June 1, 2019, to October, 1, 2019. Amendment No. 1 will serve to extend the term of the contract from June 1, 2019, to October 1, 2019, due to the delay of the upfitting requirements. |
| Conclusion |
| The Amendment needs to be approved by the Board of Supervisors to extend the contract from June 1, 2019, to October 1, 2019, due to the delay of the upfitting requirements. |
| Recommendation |
| The Public Works Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the Amendment to extend the contract through October 1, 2019, to allow for completion of the required upfitting of the vehicles. |
| Suggested Motion |
| Approval of Amendment No. 1 to Contract No. 111518-1 with McSpadden Ford for the purchase of four (4) new Ford Expedition SSVs to extend the contract to October 1, 2019, to allow for completion of the required upfitting of the vehicles. |
