Amend the contract with Norm Reeves Honda Superstore for the purchase of
one hybrid passenger sedan in the amount of $30,696.55.
DISCUSSION
The Fleet Maintenance Division's annual Equipment Replacement Program is
included in the City's annual budget and identifies vehicles scheduled for
replacement. Funding is monitored through a depreciation schedule
established with each department. Additionally, the Fleet Division reviews
the acquisition in accordance with the City's Hybrid and Alternative Fuel
Vehicle Acquisition Policy.
Various City departments utilize four-door passenger sedans to perform
routine business. The Planning and Building Agency Community Preservation
Division uses passenger vehicles to transport Council members and citizens
to investigate code violations. Due to age, condition and mileage over
115,000 miles, one 1999 Chevrolet Lumina has been approved for replacement
in the current fiscal year. The purchase of a Honda Accord hybrid sedan
conforms with the criteria established for the acquisition of hybrid
vehicles.
On February 21, 2006, the City Council awarded a contract to Norm Reeves
Honda Superstore for the purchase of three 2005 Honda Accord hybrids. The
vendor has offered a 2006 Honda Accord that includes the new model upgrades
of side impact air bags and additional safety features. Therefore, staff
recommends amending the contract with Norm Reeves Honda Superstore.
