DISCUSSION The Fleet Maintenance Division's annual Equipment Replacement Program is included in the City's annual budget, and identifies vehicles scheduled for replacement. Funding is monitored through a depreciation schedule established with each department. The Public Works Agency uses 11 street sweepers to cover over 400 miles of residential streets, 100 miles of primary streets, 50 miles of industrial areas, and 25 miles of alleys. The program also includes sweeping over 81,000 curb miles and the removal of 11,000 cubic yards of gutter litter each year. Mobile Athey street sweepers are no longer manufactured, and replacement parts difficult to obtain. Due to age, engine hours, and worn condition, two 1999 Athey sweepers have been approved for replacement in the current fiscal year. To comply with Air Quality Management District standards, the new street sweepers will be compressed natural gas units. Specifications for the new sweepers also call for a high right side dump hopper system to accommodate proper disposal directly to the Waste Management trash dumpsters. 22R-1 cs. 383 Contract Award for Street Sweepers (Spec. No. 04-150) December 20, 2004 Page 2 Santa Ana City Ordinance No. NS-2312 authorizes the City to purchase against contracts from any public agency utilizing a competitive bid process. The City of Burbank's contract with Kelly Equipment for Schwarze CNG street sweepers was awarded as a result of open, competitive bidding, and meets the City's requirements. In addition, the City annually establishes blanket order contracts of up to $10,000 with various vendors on a fiscal year basis. The contracts facilitate purchases that are required on a recurring basis and reduce the number of small value orders. However, the purchase of the two street sweepers, when added to the vendor's fiscal purchases, exceeds the $10,000 aggregate total, and requires Council approval. In order for Fleet Maintenance to continue using Kelly Equipment, staff recommends Council approval of a $5,000 blanket order contract. FISCAL IMPACT Funds are available in the Fleet Services Equipment Replacement Machinery & Equipment account (account no. 76-145-6641) in the amount of $424,797.92 i and the Fleet Service Equipment Maintenance Operating Material & Supplies account (account no. 75-111-6391) in the amount of $5,000. 0(1 .
