BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
N/A
BACKGROUND:
Units 238 and 293 were reviewed and approved by the Fleet Economic Committee and Fleet Services project manager for replacement in the 2020 budget. Vehicles are scored for replacement based on four criteria: age, usage, condition and repair costs. Recommending a vehicle for replacement requires a score 28.0 or greater. Unit 238 scored 39.68 and Unit 293 scored 37.32.
DISCUSSION:
Unit 238 is a 2005 single-axle dump body with plow and Unit 293 is a 2007 tandem-axle dump body with plow. Both units are used by the Department of Public Works - Streets Division for asphalt patching, leaf and brush pick-up, salt applications and snow removal. Both units will be replaced with a 2021 Peterbilt 348 with dump body and plow.
The new units are available on the Sourcewell Cooperative, an approved cooperative through National Auto Fleet Group, Contract 081716-PMC.
Using the City's specifications, JX Peterbilt quoted the Peterbilt with dump body and plow. The retired units will be traded-in to JX Peterbilt to offset the purchase cost of the new units. A cost breakdown is provided in the table below:
