HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - December 19, 2001 E-03AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing the Purchase of Two CNG Heavy -Duty Trucks for
Parks and Water/Wastewater Divisions ($176,140) from Delta Truck Center, of
Stockton; and Appropriate Funds for the Project
MEETING DATE: December 19, 2001
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the purchase of two
CNG heavy-duty trucks for the Parks and Water/Wastewater divisions
from Delta Truck Center, of Stockton, in the amount of $176,136.50
(includes delivery charges, but not California sales tax); and appropriate
funds for the purchase in accordance with the recommendation below.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City of Lodi was awarded two grants for the purchase of two
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) heavy-duty trucks. Based on
interviews with the various City departments' fleet coordinators, it
was determined that CNG trucks would best suit the
Water/Wastewater Division and the Parks Division.
Because the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District must approve the engine type and truck
manufacturer in order to qualify for the Heavy -Duty Emission Program, the City can only purchase
approved trucks. These approved trucks are for sale only at Delta Truck Center. For this reason, we
are recommending sole -source procurement.
The Water/Wastewater Division will purchase a 2002 Freightliner FL60 Dump/Service Truck and the
Parks Division will purchase a 2002 FL60 Dump Truck. The City of Lodi will realize $30,000.00 in
savings for the General Equipment Replacement Fund by purchasing these CNG heavy-duty trucks.
Funding: Requested Appropriation: $195,000.00 (includes purchase and delivery charges,
emergency equipment, in-service costs, and tax)
CMAQ $ 120,000.00
Heavy Duty Emission Program $ 12,614.00
General Equipment Replacement Fund $ 29,696.00
Water Capital Fund $ 16,345.00
Wastewater Capital Fund $ 16,345.00
