Everett Company through an Interlocal Participation Agreement with The Local Government Purchasing Cooperative (Buyboard) and an ordinance appropriating funds. FUNDING SOURCE: Funding is available in the Capital Equipment Fund in account 325-48860- 000-000-0007 for an estimated amount of $379,619. BACKGROUND: This purchase will be made in accordance with an existing Interlocal Participation Agreement with The Local Government Purchasing Cooperative (Buyboard) as allowed by Texas Local Government Code, Section 271.102, Cooperative Purchasing Program. Bids were taken by the Cooperative and a contract was awarded to R.B Everett Co. The Fleet Services and Purchasing staff reviewed the contract for departmental specification compliance and determined that the contract would provide the best product and pricing for meeting the needs of the City. This purchase is for a BOMAG Cedar Rapid Model CR452 T4F wheeled asphalt paver to replace unit 15220 in the Public Works Street Division. Unit 15220 was lost to an onboard equipment malfunction that engulfed the machine in fire resulting in a total loss. This unit was twenty years old, was near the end of its useful life, and was slated for the FY 20 Equipment Replacement list. This asphalt paver has the capability to do larger widths and can accommodate paving jobs of various size streets as well as large parking areas. The specifications meet all the staffs requirements and is essential to Grapevine's street maintenance program. Staff recommends approval.
