1 7. DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
After review of the current vehicle replacement list, it was determined that it was necessary to
purchase two vehicles for the Public Works Department. The two pieces of equipment to be
replaced were purchased in 2000 and 2002. These two vehicles were placed on the approved
vehicle replacement list in the fiscal year (FY) indicated below:
From FY 14/15: Two aerial lift trucks for the Public Works Department
These vehicles are utilized by the City's Traffic, and Maintenance and Operations (Signs /Striping)
Divisions, respectively, to maintain the City's traffic signals and traffic signage. These two
vehicles have been identified for replacement due to their high usage, high mileage, and increased
repair costs. They are becoming difficult to keep operational and require additional oversight,
attention, and maintenance.
City staff met with Altec Industries, Inc. in late 2014 to formulate the bid specifications for these
vehicles. During these discussions we were notified that Altec had been awarded a NJPA contract
via a national competitive bidding process. This Cooperative Purchase Agreement process has
been frequently used by the City, meets all of our open bid requirements and has been approved
by the City's Purchasing Department.
Should the purchase be approved the delivery of the vehicles will be approximately 200 calendar
days.
In addition to the purchase of these vehicles, safety lighting outfitting is needed, some of which
will be removed from existing vehicles. Additional funds have been set aside within the budget to
meet any standard outfitting needs.
The vehicles to be replaced are unit numbers 1314 and 1443.
