MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ROGER NELSON, CITY MANAGEF�
MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 20, 2001
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION TO PURCHASE VEHICLES
THROUGH AN INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT WITH THE
HOUSTON/GALVESTON AREA COUNCIL
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council to consider approval of a resolution for the purchase of various types of
vehicles through an existing interlocal agreement with the Houston/Galveston Area
Council in an amount not to exceed $512,451.89.
FUNDING:
Funds will be available from the sale of the Equipment Acquisition Notes in Account 325-
48910-000000-05 FY 2002.
BACKGROUND:
This procurement will be made in accordance with Texas Local Government Code,
Chapter 271.102 which authorizes political subdivisions to contract with each other for
governmental functions such as the purchase of goods and/or services. A local
government that purchases goods or services under this subchapter satisfies any State
law relative to the competitive bidding statutes.
The resolution will enable Staff to purchase six vehicles, one Gradall XL4100 Hydraulic
Excavator and one Sewer Cleaning Truck from an existing Houston/Galveston Area
Council contract. The current replacement criteria are shown in attachment "A".
Staff believes that savings achieved through efficiencies and reduced administrative cost
would be beneficial to the City and recommends approval.
