The <br /> bids were reviewed and the Ruffridge Johnson bid was rejected due <br /> to non-compliance with specifications. The details of the bids <br /> will be presented at the meeting on January 25, 1993.. <br /> The ABM bid was for a total of $192,138 including an optional in <br /> -cab remote operating pendant. Sales tax on this vehicle comes to <br /> $12,488.97 and a trade-in value for the current unit was quoted <br /> at $32,000 . The budgeted amount of $199, 989 will not cover the <br /> 411 total cost of the unit with necessary lights and radio (to be <br /> installed later) . Considering the trade-in value of $32,000, the <br /> additional amount necessary is $10,729. . <br /> This unit is also used in cleaning storm sewers. Therefore, staff <br /> recommends that the additional funds necessary be appropriated <br /> from the Storm Water Management Fund. Council has not yet ap- <br /> proved the 1993 SWM budget, and this action would require Council <br /> to include this amount in the budget at the time of approval. We <br /> are receiving bids on the current unit and can sell it separately - <br /> if we receive more than the proposed trade-in value. Any addi- <br /> tional funds that become available from this possibility could be <br /> deposited back into the Storm Water Management Fund. <br /> Mike Ulrich <br /> Public Works Supervisor <br /> RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the bid for a Vactor sewer <br /> jet-rodder be awarded to ABM Equipment Co. in the amount of the <br /> bid of $192,138 to be charged to the Sewer Utility account of <br /> 730-4121-704 ($181,409) and the Storm Water Management Fund 420- <br /> 4121-704 ($10,729) . r <br />
