Statement of Purpose
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: This resolution authorizes the purchase and outfitting of two 2020 Mack AT Granite 64FR tandem axle cabs and chassis for utility operations. These units will replace units 1718 and 1733.
The 2014-2015 Fleet Study found that, in order to minimize total City vehicle costs for purchase and maintenance, vehicles of this kind should be replaced when they reach 12 years old. Unit 1718, purchased in 2004 for $120,656, has incurred $121,611.44 (101% of its value) in maintenance costs to date. Unit 1733, purchased in 2005 for $124,173, has incurred $124,433 (100% of its value) in maintenance costs to date.
The cab and chassis purchase is against Minnesota state contract 124649, release T-647(5); the outfitting purchase is against Minnesota state contract 167117, release S-863(5). The purchase price is further reduced by the trade-in value of both units 1718 and 1733.
