Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br />DATE: February 23, 2015 <br /> <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br />Patrick Klaers, City Administrator <br /> <br />FROM: Terry Maurer, Public Works Director <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Purchase Mini Excavator <br /> <br />Requested Action <br /> <br />Authorize the purchase of a Bobcat Compact Excavator (E50 T4) from Tri-State Bobcat (State <br />Contract Vendor) in the amount of $68,557.12. <br /> <br />Background/Discussion <br /> <br />The 2015 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) contains a $70,000 item for an addition to the <br />City fleet of a new mini excavator. A copy of the CIP detail sheet is attached. The City’s latest <br />5 year MS4 Storm Water permit from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) requires <br />much more attention to the repair and maintenance of storm water inlets/outlets and ponding <br />areas. This part of the City’s infrastructure was given minimal attention in the past. <br /> <br />The addition of a mini excavator to our City fleet will allow our Public Works staff to address <br />most of these issues themselves without hiring a contractor. Since this requirement will be on- <br />going with future MS4 permits and may get more involved, it was decided that renting this piece <br />of equipment when needed was not a viable solution. <br /> <br />The City of Arden Hills maintains a free membership in the Minnesota Cooperative Purchasing <br />Venture Program. This allows the City to participate in State specifications and bid prices, <br />resulting in the City of Arden Hills paying the same amount for a single piece of equipment as <br />the State does for numerous pieces. <br />CONSENT ITEM – 5C <br /> <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br />
