Sopp and Son for the purchase of one <br />truck with utility body in the amount of $29,739. <br /> <br />DISCUSSION <br /> <br />The Fleet Maintenance Division's annual Equipment Replacement Program <br />identifies vehicles scheduled for replacement. Funding is monitored <br />through a depreciation schedule established with each department. <br /> <br />Various City departments utilize midsize pickup trucks with utility <br />bodies to perform routine business. The Public Works Agency's Water <br />and Sewer Services crews use trucks with utility bodies to secure and <br />transport tools and equipment to job sites. Due to age, mileage in <br />excess of 65,000 miles, and general condition, one 1996 Chevrolet truck <br />has been approved for replacement in the current fiscal year. <br /> <br />On February 7, 2005, the City Council awarded a contract to Maurice J. <br />Sopp and Son for the purchase of three trucks with utility bodies. The <br />vendor has agreed to extend the same terms and conditions and will <br />include a utility body modified to accommodate the sewer camera per our <br />specifications. Therefore, staff recommends amending the contract with <br />Maurice J. Sopp and Son. <br /> <br />22H-1 <br /> <br />CS 383 <br />
