-------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------
WHEREAS, the City of Lodi has recently received Proposition 1 B funds from
Public Transportation Modernization, Improvement, and Service Enhancement Account
(PTMISEA) for the purchase and installation of automated fare box equipment; and
WHEREAS, since automated fare boxes have been installed on all the transit
fleet vehicles, City staff recommends purchasing retrofit parts and reusing the majority of
the existing fare box equipment in the new buses recently approved for purchase. The
proposed parts cost approximately $3,000 versus $12,500 for new fare boxes; and
WHEREAS, in September 2011, City Council adopted a resolution approving the
standardization of the GFI GenFare fare box equipment and waiving the formal bidding
process.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council does hereby
approve the purchase of transit fare collection equipment from the sole source GFI
GenFare, of Elk Grove Village, Illinois, in the amount of $38,938.
