FROM:L.DennisWhitt RE:Agenda Item#_
City Manager Commission Meeting,
January21,1997
Approval of pickup truck
Code Enforcement Division
il
The attached resolution seeks approval ofa $12,758.00 expense to purchase a small
pickup truck (with extended warranty)to be assigned to the Code Enforcement Division
ofthe Building and Zoning Department.The purchase ofthis vehicle begins a
replacement process required to maintain that Division's fleet in satisfactory condition.
The average age ofCode Enforcement Division field vehicles is six years.This is
approaching a point which is unsatisfactory from an efficiency and maintenance cost
standpoint.In addition,the type of vehicle currently being used are not suitable to store
signs and other hardware retrieved from city streets and right ofways.These full size
sedans will gradually be replaced by compact pickup trucks which are much more suited
for the Division's needs.Improved fuel efficiency will also yield savings in operating
costs.
Funding for the vehicle purchase is included in this year's budget.The truck may be
purchased through the 1997 State Contract awarded to Don Reid Ford,Inc..Attached for
your reference arethe specifications and price.
Vehicle replacement and upgrading will improve the City's enforcement efforts and reduce
costs in the long run.I therefore recommend that the expense of$12,758.00 to purchase
a new pickup truck be approved by the Mayor and City Commission.
