REQUEST FOR <br />COUNCIL ACTION <br />CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: <br />MAY 1, 2018 <br />TITLE: <br />AWARD PURCHASE ORDER TO <br />HUNTINGTON BEACH HONDA FOR <br />TWO HONDA PIONEER UTILITY VEHICLES <br />(SPEC. NO. 18-007) <br />(STRATEGIC PLAN NO. 6,2) <br />NAN <br />E <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br />❑ As Recommended <br />❑ As Amended <br />❑ Ordinance on 151 Reading <br />❑ Ordinance on 2nd Reading <br />❑ Implementing Resolution <br />❑ Set Public Hearing For <br />CONTINUED TO <br />FILE NUMBER <br />Authorize a one-time purchase and payment of purchase order to Huntington Beach Honda for the <br />procurement of two 2017 Honda Pioneer utility vehicles in an amount not to exceed $48,930, <br />subject to non -substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. <br />The Finance and Management Services Agency, Facilities, Fleet Maintenance and Central Stores <br />Division is responsible for the acquisition, maintenance, repair, and replacement of vehicles, trucks, <br />and maintenance equipment. The Santa Ana Police Department is in need of two new utility <br />vehicles for the Civic Center Detail and Park Ranger program to replace existing golf carts that are <br />over 15 years old and unreliable due to their age. The recommended vehicles are designed for <br />off-road use and will provide access to areas that regular patrol vehicles cannot enter. Originally, <br />staff reviewed the option of purchasing electric powered utility vehicles for the Police Department. <br />However, after reviewing the specifications with Police, it was determined that the maximum speed <br />of 25 miles per hour was insufficient for a typical patrol pursuit. Additionally, the electric powered <br />vehicles did not have the adequate wheelbase to effectively patrol hard to reach terrain. The <br />proposed vehicles will allow officers assigned to special detail assignments to more quickly and <br />efficiently move throughout the Civic Center Complex as well as assist with special enforcement <br />along the Santa Ana Riverbed, various City parks, and the Santiago Creek. <br />The Notice Inviting Bids was advertised on January 23, 2018, on the City's online bid management <br />and publication system.
