SUBJECT: Police Patrol Sedan Procurement for 2001-02
Specification No. 90055
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Approve the acquisition of five 2001 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptors by purchase order
in the amount of$128,404.99 to Downtown Ford Sales
DISCUSSION
The 2001-03 Financial Plan includes money to replace five existing police patrol sedans. (See
pages E-4 and E-27 of the Financial Plan and pages 63-65 of Appendix B to the Financial Plan.)
Public Works has found that the desired vehicles are available to the City through a State of
California cooperative purchasing contract. The State has competitively procured such vehicles
and made the contract prices available to local government agencies. Because of the high
volumes purchased, these prices are usually much lower than what a local agency could realize
using its own competitive procurement procedures.
FISCAL IMPACT
Acquisition Cost: $128,404.99
Budget Available: $150,000.00
The balance of the budget is available for striping and equipment changeover (light bars, push
bumpers, shotguns, rifles, gun racks,radios, video cameras,radar units, computers, etc.)
