Explanation

This ordinance authorizes the Finance and Management Department, Fleet Management Division, to purchase various light duty vehicles to replace vehicles that are beyond their useful service lives. These forty-five vehicles will be used by seven of the City's departments, with the largest number for the Recreation and Parks Department and Development Department, Code Enforcement Division. The purchases will be from established Universal Term Contracts for light duty vehicles and automobiles with Ricart Properties Inc and 32 Ford Mercury Inc.

There are currently 2,748 pieces of on-road equipment in the City of Columbus. Of these, 922 are over the ten-year useful life. Criteria used to select which forty-five vehicles to replace include whether the vehicle is older than ten years, has over 100,000 miles, and if the maintenance cost to date has been greater than the acquisition cost.

Fiscal Impact: A total of $1,000,000.00 has been budgeted in the 2010 General Fund for Fleet Management General Fund. This ordinance authorizes the expenditure of $825,000.00.

Emergency Action is requested so that the orders for these vehicles can be placed prior to the production cut off dates, and older high maintenance vehicles can be removed from service.

Contract compliance numbers: 32 Ford Mercury 311285506 exp 10/14/10 and Ricart Properties 311282546 expires 10/23/10.
