Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
The Division of Planning and Operations is responsible for snow and ice removal and for maintaining the City's roadway system. To accomplish this mission the Division requires eight CNG powered single axle dump trucks and five diesel powered tandem axle dump trucks. These trucks will replace older trucks beyond their useful service lives and will provide for a more reliable fleet to carry out services provided by the Division. This purchase is consistent with the division's fleet replacement program.

All the main parts and components and the cabs and chassis necessary for the building of the eight CNG powered single axle dump trucks are available on existing ODOT contracts with the exception of the snow plow which is available on an Ohio Department of Administrative Service Cooperative Contract. All items will be purchased from the appropriate contracts and drop shipped to the qualified up-fitter. The Purchasing Office has established contract FL004977 with H Y O Inc. dba Pengwyn Hydraulics for the upfitting of dump trucks.
