7. DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In 2013 the City contracted out its street sweeping operations. As a result of this action the City
was left with eight surplus street sweepers. After completing a thorough inspection it was
determined that two of the street sweeping units were in satisfactory operational condition and
met current AQMD requirements. The remaining six sweepers are over 15 years old and require
extensive repairs to be maintained in a functional state and it is recommended that they be sent to
auction. Because they are non - compliant with the Southern California AQMD they will be
auctioned off by a Purchasing Department approved out -of -state equipment broker. All funds
received will be allocated to the vehicle replacement fund. Initial discussions with the broker
place the estimated value of the surplus units at $3,500 each.
