GOAL
Approval of Resolution 19-R-84
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
The Fleet & Facility Services Department has developed a 5-year replacement program to provide equitable solutions for vehicle replacement. The strategy is based on current industry/municipal standards, as well as, yearly review and adjustments by the Fleet staff through means of condition assessments.  With the combined efforts of staff including Fleet and Purchasing, staff solicited multiple bids for all vehicles and equipment through local and statewide vendors associated with Texas cooperative purchase agreements. These cooperative agreements allow the City to utilize contracts with a large network of participating vendors providing the best value for the City.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approval of Resolution 19-R-84
FISCAL IMPACT
The City of Schertz will fund the purchase of vehicles and equipment through the city’s general fund, with money approved in the FY 18-19 budget.
