SUBJECT PURCHASE OF A FIRE RESCUE TRUCK UNDER AN INTERLOCAL PURCHASING
AGREEMENT FROM SVI FIRE AND RESCUE TRUCKS FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council
1 Authorize the purchase of a fire rescue truck under an interlocal purchasing agreement from SVI
Fire and Rescue Trucks for the Fire Department at a cost not to exceed $253,234 with payment due
within 30 days of the date of the invoice with freight included in the unit price, and
2 Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
New Equipment Purchases Fund by $253,234, to be obtained through the City's Equipment Note
Program
DISCUSSION
The truck is a replacement for the City's uneconomically repairable unit No 2360002 that will be sold at
auction and was part of the FY2001-2002 adopted budget that approved the replacement equipment as
part of the new equipment replacement plan Firefighters will use this equipment in the fire rescue and
protection of the citizens of Fort Worth
The Fire Department has reviewed the pricing of the equipment, which is based on the City of Bedford
Bid No 02-0509B (it includes a surcharge for new federal mandated emissions equipment) The Fire
Department finds the cost to be reasonable
Under Section 271 102(c) of the Texas Local Government Code, a local government purchasing an
item under such a contract satisfies any state law requiring that the local government seek competitive
bids for purchase of the item
M/WBE - A waiver of the goal for M/WBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the
Purchasing Division and approved by the M/WBE Office because the purchase of goods is from
sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible
