THE ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:

 

1.) Defer purchase of fleet vehicles and equipment, which could cause the departments to operate in a reduced resource capacity, incur increased maintenance costs, and lose any remaining residual value in the existing vehicles.

 

2.) Approve the purchase of a portion of the fleet vehicles and equipment.

 

3.) Purchase fleet vehicles and equipment in order to provide safe and effective services and achieve the least cost of ownership.

 

 

Which alternative is recommended? Why?

 

The third alternative is recommended to support each department’s mission and provide services in a safe and cost-effective manner.

 

 

CONFORMITY TO CITY POLICY:

 

Purchases made through a cooperative contract are exempt from the competitive bidding process as stated in Texas Local Government Code (TLGC) section 271.102, subchapter F and Texas Local Government Code (TLGC) section 252.022.
