Amend the contract to Haaker Equipment Company for the purchase of one
compressed natural gas street sweeper in the amount of $257,583.92.
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. The compressed natural gas (CNG) sweeper
complies with the Air Quality Management District (AQMD) standards for
alternative fuel street sweepers.
The Public Works Agency uses 11 street sweepers to cover over 300 miles of
residential streets, 100 miles of primary streets, 50 miles of industrial
areas, and 25 miles of alleys. The program also includes sweeping over
81,000 curb miles and the removal of 11,000 cubic yards of gutter litter
each year. Due to age, engine hours, and condition, the last 1999 diesel
Athey sweeper has been approved for replacement in the current fiscal year.
To comply with AQMD standards, the new street sweeper will be a CNG unit.
Specifications for the new sweeper also call for a high right side dump
hopper system to accommodate proper disposal directly to the Waste
Management trash dumpsters.
On March 20, 2006, the City Council awarded a contract to Haaker Equipment
Company for the purchase of two CNG street sweepers. The vendor has
offered to extend the same terms and conditions for one additional
Mechanical Broom street sweeper. Therefore, staff recommends amending the
contract with Haaker Equipment Company.
