<br />O&M Purchase of Two Replacement Trucks
<br />April 4, 2005
<br />Page 2
<br />
<br />Minnesota Cooperative Purchasiue: Venture (CPV)
<br />The City of Ardcn Hills currently pays $500 annually to maintain membership in the Minnesota
<br />Cooperative Purchasing Venture Program. This allows the City to participate in State
<br />specifications 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. The discount is such that a City
<br />buying a new piece of equipment through the CPV will typically pay less than buying a slightly
<br />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 and Truck Utilities is the
<br />vendor that has the State contract for truck utilities.
<br />
