<br />2 <br /> <br />Minnesota Coonerative Purchasinl!: Venture (CPV) <br /> <br />The City of Arden Hills currently pays $350 annually to maintain membership in the Minnesota <br />Cooperative Purchasing Venture Program. This allows the City to participate in State <br />specification and bid prices, resulting in the City of Arden Hills paying the same amount for a <br />single piece of equipment as the State does for numerous pieces. This discount is such that a <br />City buying a new piece of equipment through the CPV will typically pay less than buying a <br />slightly used piece of equipment, which was not purchased through the CPV. <br /> <br />Superior Ford is the vendor that has the State contract for Ford vehicles. Their Minnesota State <br />contract number for light trucks is 011834. <br /> <br />Budl!:et <br /> <br />The proposed replacement of Vehicle #10 was not anticipated at this time and thus is an <br />unbudgeted item.
