San Bruno City Council Meeting April 22, 2014
10c. Purchase of Ford Vehicles
C
Engine
start
again,
I'm
here
tonight
to
provide
information
on
the
item
before
you
that
would
authorize
the
purchase
of
nine
vehicles,
which
are
part
of
our
fleet
replacement
program.
The
vehicles
for
your
consideration
tonight
represent
a
portion
of
the
17
that
were
approved
by
the
council
as
part
of
the
CIP
equipment
of
budget
appropriation.
The
remaining
seven
vehicles
presented
to
the
will
be
presented
to
the
council
at
a
later
date.
The
vehicles
are
necessary
to
ensure
a
reliable
fleet
and
replace
vehicles
which
have
reached
the
end
of
their
serviceable
life.
C
The
vehicles
on
this
list
have
an
average
age
of
17
years,
with
the
oldest
one
being
21
years
old.
Several
have
serious
mechanical
or
regulatory
compliance
issues
which
were
rendered
them
unreliable
or
not
available
for
use
and
the
cable
one
of
the
cable
bands
has
already
been
sent
out
to
auction
some
months
ago,
so
we
went
out
to
bid
in
early
March
and
we
received
four
proposals.
C
Serramonte
Ford
had
the
lowest
bid,
the
qualified
bid
at
two
hundred
forty
four
thousand
nine
hundred
and
nine
dollars.
You
might
notice
in
your
packet
that
there's
a
appears
that
there's
two
lower
bids,
those
those
two
bidders
did
not.
They
chose
not
to
bid
on
the
cable
vans
and
that's
why
that
numbers
is
lower.
C
The
resolution
before
you
would
authorize
the
purchase
of
two
vehicles
for
the
cable,
TV
Department
three
vehicles
for
the
water
division,
two
for
engineering,
one
for
the
Community
Development
Department
and
one
for
the
streets
and
storm
division
in
your
staff
report.
There's
more
details
about
each
vehicle.
I
know
some
of
the
council.
Members
were
able
to
look
at
some
of
the
vehicles
last
week
and
I'm
available
for
any
questions
you
might
have
on
this
item
to
any
questions.
D
One
comment
from
itself:
I
want
to
do
you
sometimes
I've
asked
happen
to
pass
to
come.
Look
at
the
vehicles,
so
I
was
appreciative
and
surprised
and
pleased
when
I
got
the
email
saying
and
you
stop
by
and
if
you
want
to
take
a
look
and
I
did
and
I
appreciate
that
Clara.
Thank
you
for
having
someone
there,
who
has
not
only
the
background
as
far
as
our
mechanic
but
in
his
own
hobbies
obviously
knows
cars
very
well.
D
A
E
Chair
Michael
I
have
some
comments
as
well.
I
did
get
a
chance
to
walk
through
the
parking
lot
and
see
some
of
those
trucks
and
they
did
present
a
pretty
sad
picture.
My
concern
is
that
you
have
vehicles
out
there
that
are
20
years
old,
that
don't
appear
to
have
gotten
a
lot
of
utility,
meaning
that
the
mileage
on
these
are
fairly
low
and
there's
nothing
in
the
staff
report.
That
tells
me
anything
about
how
these
vehicles
are
going
to
be
used.
E
There's
a
lot
of
duplicate
vehicles
that
are
being
assigned
to
different
departments,
but
nothing
that's
very
compelling
about
why
vehicles
can't
be
shared.
Why
there
can't
be
better
resource
sharing
that
would
in
setting
some
I
mean
I
would
be
a
lot
more
comfortable
retiring,
a
three
year
old
vehicle
with
200,000
miles
on
it,
then
a
20
year
old
vehicle
that
appears
to
have
sat
in
a
parking
lot
for
the
majority
of
its
life
and
then
I
read
things
about.
E
C
What
we've
done
is
we've
looked
at
each
vehicle
and
tried
to
make
the
most
utility
out
of
each
one
of
them
that
the
SUV's
that
you're
looking
at
their
multi
use
their
inspectors
that
are
going
to
be
using
those
and
it.
If
we
looked
at,
we
go
out
and
look
at
the
the
market
and
look
at
each
vehicle
we're
trying
to
customize,
not
customized
but
create
a
vehicle
that
can
be
used
for
multiple
purposes
and
be
shared.
C
So
that's
those
are
the
things
we
look
at
when
we
purchase
the
vehicles
and
some
of
the
vehicles,
while
the
mileage
monton
might
not
be
high.
Some
of
the
vehicles
used
for
traffic
control
might
have
to
set
their
an
idol
with
the
with
warning,
arrows
and
so
forth.
Running
and
people
don't
realize,
may
not
get
a
lot
of
miles,
but
it's
getting
a
lot
of
use
on
different
crews
and
we
do
share
some
of
those
vehicles
back
and
forth
when
we
can
I'm
not
sure.
If
that
answers.
Your
question
I.
F
E
D
The
chair,
just
based
on
councilmember
salazars
comments
that
he
brought
up
I,
would
hope
it
then,
maybe
at
the
budget
study
session,
that
we're
going
to
have
if
we're
asking
for
that
or
CIP.
Some
of
the
qualifiers
that
can
be
measured
are
valid,
and
then
those
should
always
be
looked
at
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
our
due
diligence.
I
know
you
talked
about
vehicles
that
are
on
standby.
You
know,
is
there
a
radius
in
which
they
get
to
go
home?
Who
makes
that
determination?
What
does
that
add
to
it?
