FILE NUMBER
Authorize a one-time purchase and payment of purchase order to Guaranty Chevrolet Motors Inc.
for the procurement of three 2018 Chevy Bolt electric vehicles in the amount of $114,460, subject
to nonsubstantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
The Finance, and Management Services Agency, Facilities, Fleet Maintenance and Central
Stores Division .(FMCS) is responsible for the acquisition, maintenance, repair, and replacement
of vehicles, trucks, and maintenance equipment. In an effort to transition the City fleet to include
more alternative fuel vehicles, FMCS staff has identified the need to purchase three Chevrolet
Bolt electric vehicles (EV). Approval of this purchase will position the City to receive a $10,000
reimbursement for each vehicle purchased from the 2017 MSRC Local Government Partnership,-:
once the grant agreement is fully executed later this year. The Public Works Agency is in need of
one new vehicle for the recently created Safety Coordinator position. This position requires a
vehicle to visit city constructions sites, and attend local safety and emergency preparedness
seminars and meetings throughout Southern California.
Additionally, the Planning and Building Agency currently leases two Nissan Leafs for Building
Safety staff. These leases expire in June, and staff would like to replace these vehicles with new
Chevy Bolt EVs. The Chevy Bolt battery life provides a range of approximately 238 miles on a
single charge.
