Explanation

Background: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to issue purchase orders for various grades of fuels, including ethanol and unleaded fuel (including fuel purchased through MPC Investments LLC: Speedway LLC, SuperFleet) for the Fleet Management Division. A Universal Term Contract, authorized by Ordinance 2280-2012, exists for fuel credit card purchases with MPC Investments LLC (Speedway LLC, SuperFleet). This ordinance also, authorizes the Finance and Management Director to issue purchase orders for bulk unleaded fuel with Mansfield Oil Company of Gainesville, Inc., SA005229 for bulk fuel closed on 1-23-14, Mansfield Oil Company of Gainesville, Inc. was deemed the lowest, responsive, responsible bidder. Ordinance 0329-2014 seeks authorization to establish a Universal Term Contract with Mansfield Oil Company for the provision of bulk unleaded fuel.

This legislation will also establish funding with Beems BP to cover any costs incurred prior to the establishment of the new bulk fueling contract with Mansfield Oil Company of Gainesville, Inc. Authorization to use the contract with Beem's BP Distribution for unleaded bulk fuel deliveries was given by Ordinance 2078-2011. The Beem's BP Distribution contract was established through the formal competitive bid process of Franklin County for bulk unleaded fuel purchases; however, since it was not bid by the City the competitive bidding provisions of Columbus City Codes, 1959, as have been in the past, must be waived.
