Financial Impact: $63,962 in Motor Vehicle Maintenance Fund 1702. $1,956,500 was approved for project #14-7500, Vehicle & Equipment Replacement Plan in the FY14 CIP and $1,891,207 is currently available.
Total Costs: $63,962.00
Fund: Motor Vehicle Maintenance    Account: 604080
Program: 1702 Vehicle & Equip Replacement Plan (14-7500)
Amount: $63,962.00    Budget Status: Budget Exists
Business Impact (Per NRS 237):
    
A Business Impact Statement is not required because this is not a rule.
Agenda Item Brief: Equipment Services is requesting authorization to spend $63,962.00 to replace two motorcycles for the Police Department.


Background: This request is for replacement of patrol motorcycles #246H, and #259B. These vehicles have reached the end of their life cycle. These vehicles have had their life cycles extended, and now the maintenance costs are exceeding the worth of the vehicles.

Analysis: In sourcing these vehicles, if approved, the City would be using the joinder provision allowed under NRS 332.195, and purchasing these vehicles utilizing the State of Arizona contract #ADSPO13-00002453. Utilizing existing state bids have historically been the most competitive. Utilizing the “joinder” provision allows the City to precisely define the vehicles needed while foregoing the need to formally bid the item.

Alternatives: 1.Council could approve this purchase as outlined by staff. 2.Council could deny this purchase. 3.Council could direct staff to provide alternatives to this purchase.

Recommended Motion: I move to approve the purchase of two Victory Commander 1 ABS motorcycles from Victory Police Motorcycles in the amount of $63,962.00.
