Subject: Consideration of 2013 Purchase of a Replacement Dump Truck
1. WHY THIS MATTER IS BEFORE THE BOARD
Board approval is required for purchases in excess of $15,000 and only the Board can
declare vehicles surplus.
2. HISTORY
In 2008, the District established Electric and Water Vehicle Replacement Funds to
provide a source of funds for periodic vehicle replacement. Funds are added each
year by both the Water and Electric Departments as described in the adopted budget.
3. NEW INFORMATION
California Air Resources Board has mandated that diesel powered vehicles meet strict
standards of which our existing 5 yard dump truck does not meet.
Specifications were prepared and a request for bids was advertised for one dump
truck. Three bids were received and are summarized below.
Supplier Total
Riverview International $ 128,418.00
ER Bacon (ERBCO) $ 128,852.84
Silver State International $ 128,957.00
Silver State International $ 134,998.00
Unit 334 may be surplussed and sent to public auction with proceeds from this sale
being deposited into the Water Department Vehicle Replacement Fund.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient funds exist in the Water Vehicle Replacement Fund for the purchase of the
vehicle.
Recovery of some of the initial investment will be made through the sale of the surplus
vehicle at public auction. Proceeds from this sale will be transferred to the Water
Department Vehicle Replacement Fund.
5. RECOMMENDATION
A) Award the purchase of one dump truck to Riverview International of Sacramento for
the amount of $128,418 plus applicable tax.
B) Declare Unit 334 surplus and apply the sales proceeds to the Water Vehicle
Replacement Fund.
