Explanation
This legislation is to authorize the purchase of one (1) Hybrid Bucket Truck for the Department of Public Service, Division of Planning and Operations as part of the Clean Cities grant. This unit will replace an older unit which is beyond its useful life. This ordinance authorizes the Finance and Management Director to issue a purchase order with Center City International Truck for a Hybrid Bucket Truck. On January 06, 2011 the Purchasing Department opened a formal bid solicitation SA003783. Three bids were received, Utility Truck Equipment, Center City International and Fyda Freight liner Columbus.

The City of Columbus, Finance and Management Department, Fleet Management Division, was awarded a grant from the United States Department of Energy (DOE) through the local Clean Cities Coalition designee, Clean Fuels Ohio. The funding opportunity is titled "Clean Cities FY09 Petroleum Reduction Technologies Projects for the Transportation Sector," Area of Interest 4, and was created through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 to fund cost-shared projects that expand the use of alternative fueled vehicles and advanced technology vehicles as well as the installation or acquisition of infrastructure necessary to directly support an alternative fueled vehicle or advanced technology vehicle. The grant funds 75% of the incremental cost of converting the vehicle to an alternative fueled vehicle.

Emergency action is requested so that a purchase order can be issued as soon as possible, thereby ensuring that deadlines of the vendor are met.
