Santa Ana Anaheim Santa Ana DISCUSSION City agencies rent equipment and purchase small batch concrete for special proj ects as well as for a wide variety of routine duties. It is cost-effective for the departments to rent equipment for a one-day project in lieu of purchasing the equipment. Rentals include, but are not limited to: manlifts, generators, chain saws, skid steer loaders, sod cutters, stake bed trucks with lift gates, carpet cleaners, plumbing power snakes, electric rotary hammers, concrete trailers with double axles and electric scissors. Concrete is purchased as batch plant mix in quantities of one-half yard to two yards. The small batches of concrete allow quick and easy use for repair projects where ordering a truck load is cost prohibitive. 22C-1 38j Contracts Amendment for Equipment Rental and Concrete (Spec. No. 04-127) July 18, 2005 Page 2 As agencies continue to utilize City staff to handle special and routine repair proj ects over contracting for services, the rental of equipment for short-term periods over purchasing equipment continues. Staff requests approval to increase the aggregate limit for the recommended vendors to allow for uninterrupted services. FISCAL IMPACT Funds are available in the various departmental Operating Materials & Supplies accounts (object code 6391). . , \, \. 1 ==\.~t\..~ \~1 ~ n I.-...r~~ :> ~<rFrancisco Gutierrez Executive Director ~ Finance and Management Services Agency FGjKMj04-127-A.2:uc 22C-2
