Public Works went out for bid for one (1) front load refuse truck with options for an extended warranty. It is to replace unit 416 with high mileage and high maintenance costs. The bids from American Equipment #4 and 5, McNeilus, and Burnup Equipment #1 did not meet the transmission specifications. The Roy Conley bid #1 did not meet specifications on the strength of the side beams. The American Equipment #1 bid met all specifications.
Recommendation Action:
Approve bid from American Equipment for one (1) front load refuse truck in the amount of $120,805.00 and the extended warranty for $1,109.00 totaling $121,914.00 (Public Works/Sanitation)
