Department Approval <br />j�'�`� G�7� <br />Item Description <br />BACKGROUND <br />�� <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />Date: July 14, 2014 <br />Item No.: 7.i <br />City Manager Approval <br />�� ��� <br />� <br />Consider Authorizing Use of HGACBuy Program For Purchase Of New <br />Fire Engine <br />Houston-Galveston Area Council (HGAC) is a unit of local government and a political <br />subdivision of the State of Texas. The HGACBuy Program is over 30 years old and specializes <br />in high ticket, capital intensive products and services that require technical, detailed <br />specifications and extensive professional skills to evaluate bid responses. <br />On July 22, 2013 Roseville City Council approved membership in the Interlocal Contract to join <br />HGACBuy Program. <br />The City of Roseville currently has an active Interlocal contract for cooperative purchasing in <br />which the Fire Department is interested in using for the selection and purchase of its new fire <br />engine scheduled for replacement in 2015. <br />The Fire Department has a replacement budget and funding within the Capital Improvement Plan <br />(CIP) for the scheduled replacement of the new engine. The current budget for replacement of <br />the engine is $550,000. <br />Replacing a fire engine requires months of product research, months of department input, and <br />finding a product which will meet the specialized use of the vehicle based on the way the Fire <br />Department staffs and responds to emergencies. <br />Therefore, we believe we will be better positioned using the HGACBuy Program to assure we <br />are able to purchase the best replacement engine for the Department rather than utilizing the <br />lowest bid process for purchase. <br />The Fire Department will seek Council approval for the final purchase amount and purchase <br />contract prior to placing the order. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
