Resolution to Authorize the Purchase of a Sewer Inspection Van on a Ford E-450 Chassis from Jack Doheny Company and Appropriate Funding from the Fleet Services Fund Balance (Sourcewell - $137,348.42) (8 Votes Required)
Memorandum
The attached resolution authorizes the purchase of one new sewer inspection van on a Ford E-450 chassis for $137,348.42 from Jack Doheny Company through the Sourcewell government cooperative purchasing program (#120721-RVL) for use by the Public Works Unit of the Public Services Area.
This sewer inspection van will be used by Public Works utility staff to aid in their day to day operations of maintaining and repairing the City's sewer system infrastructure.
The proposed sewer inspection van will replace a 2016 Ford F-450 sewer inspection van (#2616) with over 6,950 hours of use. The current inspection equipment that is on #2616 is approximately one year old and will be moved over to the new van which will save Public Works about $10,000.00. There is currently no full electric chassis offered in this chassis group size so the new van will be replaced with a gas powered chassis.
RapidView LLC was awarded contract #120721-RVL by the Sourcewell government cooperative purchasing program for sewer equipment. Jack Doheny Company of Northville, MI, is a dealer of record for RapidView under the Sourcewell contract.
Jack Doheny Company complies with the requirements of the City's Conflict of Interest and Non-Discrimination ordinances.

This FY24 transfer will have lapsed into the Fleet Services Fund fund balance and upon approval of this resolution, will be appropriated to the FY25 Fleet Services Fund Operations and Maintenance budget...
