Nelson, Chief of Police-Paine College, for the donation of 3 police vehicles. (Referred from May 7 Commission meeting) Background:Attached for your review is a letter from Chief J. D. Nelson, Chief of Police for Paine College for a donation of 3 police vehicles. Paine College, established in 1882, is a private institution of higher learning that is located in Augusta, Georgia on a campus in excess of 57 acres with 31 buildings. Augusta has assisted Paine College in the past with donated vehicles. Analysis:Should the Commission approve this request there are 21 vehicles that could be considered. These vehicles would normally be decommissioned by removing all emergency equipment and painting the vehicle a single color before posting them on the auction page (GovDeals). These vehicles are currently averaging about $2,000 per vehicle of which $450 is reimbursed for the painting which leave an average of $1,550 per car. Should the Commission approve the donation, Paine College would be required to paint the vehicle. Financial Impact:The donation of 3 cars would equate to less than $5,000 less in revenue generated by the auction. Alternatives:1. Approve the request as a donation 2. Approve the request in part (ie: approve 2 vehicles or 1 vehicle). 3. Approve the sale of these vehicles to Paine College similar to other requests from othe public safety agencies. 4. Disapprove the request and auction the vehicles Recommendation:Approve the request based on past support of Paine College. Funds are Available in the Following None Required Cover Memo Item # 1 Accounts: REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Cover Memo Item # 1 Attachment number 1 \nPage 1 of 1 Item # 1 Finance Committee Meeting 5/13/2013 12:55 PM 2013 Utilities Vac Trucks Department:Finance - Fleet Management Caption:Approve the lease of two sewer vacuum trucks for the Augusta Utilities Department – Construction and Maintenance Division. Background:The Augusta Utilities Department-Construction and Maintenance Division would like approval to lease two sewer vacuum trucks under a four year contract. Both new trucks will replace older model trucks, one a 1998 model, asset number 974033, and the other a 2001 model, asset number F00258. These trucks are in poor condition with extensive wear and tear due to age and the tremendous amount of sewer drain maintenance required of the city and surrounding areas. These trucks are accumulating an increasing amount of down time due to their age and complex maintenance requirements which in turn, hinders the department from meeting their State and Federal compliance requirements. The department has included the implementation of a full maintenance program with the lease due to the specialty requirements of these vehicles. The department feels the lease would allow them to obtain two units with the full maintenance program at a portion of the straight purchase price. The truck vendor has agreed to accept the older trucks as a trade in to reduce the lease cost. The two new units would help significantly in staying abreast of the sewer drain maintenance requirements of the Augusta area therefore enabling them to meet their compliance requirements. We have included details of the lease program as well as attached the trade in vehicle evaluations for your review. Analysis:Fleet Management submitted a request for bids through the Procurement Department utilizing the Demand Star electronic bid system which offers nationwide bid coverage. The Procurement Department received quotes back from one vendor with the following results: (Bid 12-232A) Environmental Products of Georgia straight buy and 4 year lease program details as follows: Trucks straight purchase price is $324,923.00 each ($649,846.00 total) Lease Option 1=Four (4) annual payments of $143,025.66 with trade in of 2 existing trucks ($15,000 each) (Total pmts $572,100.24) Lease Option 2=Four (4) annual payments of $150,999.04 without trade in option (Total pmts $603,996.16) Cover Memo Item # 2 Both options include the full maintenance program at $12,000 per truck per year. Lease end options: (1) To purchase trucks for $100,000 each, (2) allow lease to expire with the vendor paying the final $100,000 balloon payment, or (3) renew another lease Financial Impact:The trucks will be leased through the use of the department’s enterprise funds. The total lease cost for the new trucks with full maintenance contract depending on which option is approved will be Option 1 = $572,100.24; or Option 2 = $603,996.16.
