Approve the purchase of Caterpillar model D-8T WH/W GPS Dozer, bid item #19-226, from Yancey
Brothers as the compliant bidder with no exceptions
Department:Environmental Services
Presenter:
Caption:Motion to approve the purchase of Caterpillar model D-8T
WH/W GPS Dozer, bid item #19-266, from Yancey Brothers as
the compliant bidder with no exceptions. (No recommendation
from Engineering Services Committee October 29, 2019 -
referred from November 5 Commission meeting)
Background:Over the years, the Environmental Services Department (ESD)
has operated a variety of sizes and types of dozers. We have
used large dozers that are designed for high volume
operations. We have also used mid-sized dozers designed for
medium and lower sized operations. Currently, the ESD operates
with three mid-sized dozers. They operate on the working face
of the landfill. They were bought as a package deal in
2014. They were purchased due to the cost and operational
effectiveness three mid-sized dozers would give us at that time.
The three dozers currently operating are reaching their normal
life expectancy. It is now time to examine all options to
effectively replace this equipment. Upon examining landfill
operations over the past year, it has become apparent we need to
move to operating large dozers in order to maintain our current
operations. The volume of trash received has increased in recent
years to a point where a mid-size dozer in no longer adequate. In
addition, equipment breakdowns based on the effects of the
lower undercarriage of the mid-size dozer and the need to seek
replacement rental equipment have accentuated this move. The
ESD is proposing a two-stage transition process in order to
address this need. Over a two-year period, two larger dozers will
replace the current three mid-sized dozers. A large dozer will be
purchased in FY 2019 followed by another purchase in FY
2020. The ESD in conjunction with the Procurement
Department released bid #19-266 in an effort to procure a large
dozer. There were two responsive bidders to the solicitation. The
initial low bidder was Flint Equipment with a John Deere 1050
K. This bid did not meet several specifications as set forth in the
bid. (See attached award memo.) Therefore, it was determined
that the bid was not compliant with the requested specifications.
The ESD recommends we accept the Yancey Brothers bid of a
Caterpillar D-8T WH/W GPS. It was the second lowest bid. It
meets the requirements set forth in the bid specifications.
Analysis:The daily cover needs of the landfill necessitate the phasing out
of the three mid-sized 2014 John Deere 850 K dozers. We are
proposing a two-stage transition process. We are moving
forward with the purchase of an initial large dozer. We are
proposing the purchase of a Caterpillar D-8T. Next year we will
implement the 2nd stage with the purchase of an additional large
dozer. The three existing John Deere 850 K’s will be sold on
government deals to help offset the purchase costs. A further
cost saving benefit of this transition will be the inclusion of a
GPS system in each new large dozer. This will allow us to
achieve additional cost effectiveness through advanced location
capabilities. It will also improve communication with the
compactor. This will help us achieve better compaction of the
cell. This in turn will lead to less need for additional airspace.
Financial Impact:The purchase price of the Caterpillar D-8T dozer is $950,450.00
with the GPS system installed prior to onsite delivery.
Alternatives:1. Approve the purchase of the Caterpillar D-8T WH/W GPS. 2.
Do not approve.
Recommendation:Approve the purchase of the Caterpillar D-8T WH/W GPS.

HCD _ Homebuyer Assistance Agreement Process Request
Department:HCD
Presenter:Hawthorne Welcher Jr. and/or HCD Staff
Caption:Motion to give the Administrator permission to approve and sign
off on all Homebuyer Assistance Program (DPA, Homebuyer
Subsidy, Employee Incentive, and Next Door program) funding
requests from Housing and Community Development
Department. These requests will provide downpayment
assistance, closing cost and gap finance to individuals that
purchases homes in Augusta, Georgia. This will provide
residents within Augusta, Georgia to become a part of the
American Dream.
Background:The City of Augusta’s Homebuyer Assistance Programs are
provided as a loan in the form of a second mortgage. This
financial assistance is combined with a primary loan (first
mortgage loan) from a participating lending institution and
enables a qualified first-time home buyer to become a
homeowner. The buyer must be a first-time home buyer and the
home must become the buyer’s primary residence. The program
is funded by The Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) and administered by Augusta’s Housing
and Community Development Department (HCD). The program
promotes neighborhood stability by assisting with the gap
financing toward the purchase price and closing costs for homes
located within the city limits of Augusta and in conjunction with
local Community Housing Development Organizations
(CHDOs). There has been a significant decrease in the usage of
these programs since the new contract process began in October
2018, HCD processed 36 DPAs, 5 Homebuyer Subsidies, and 2
Employee Incentives. Thus far in 2019, HCD has processed 10
DPAs and 4 Homebuyer Subsidies. The reasoning for the
decrease in numbers is because potential homebuyers, lenders
and realtors are not utilizing the program due to the length of
time it takes to complete the process. Once the application is
received in the Neighborly portal it takes approximately sixty
(60) days to go through the current contract process. The
homebuyer normally have thirty (30) days from the time of
submission to the sale of the property. Several homebuyers have
lost the opportunity to become a homeowner because they could
not get the funds in a timely manner.
Analysis:If authorization is given to the Administration to approve and
execute (via signature) all Homebuyer Assistance Applications,
this will ease the burden for potential homebuyers and will also
have a positive impact on the community by increasing the tax
base for Augusta, Georgia
Financial Impact:The City receives funding from the US Housing and Urban
Development Department (HUD) on an annual basis and
allocates HOME funds to assist potential homebuyers with
downpayment assistance, closing cost and gap financing. There
is also funding allocated within the Laney Walker Bethlehem
Bond funds to assist with homeownership.
Alternatives:Do not approve Subsidy’s Agreement.
Recommendation:Motion to give the Administrator permission to approve and sign
off on all Homebuyer Assistance Program (DPA, Homebuyer
Subsidy, Employee Incentive, and Next Door program) funding
requests from Housing and Community Development
Department. These requests will provide downpayment
assistance, closing cost and gap finance to individuals that
purchases homes in Augusta, Georgia. This will provide

HCD_ Boys and Girls Club: 2018 CDBG Grant Amendment Request
Department:HCD
Presenter:Hawthorne Welcher Jr. and/or HCD Staff
Caption:Motion to authorize amending the 2018 Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) Agreement between
Augusta, Georgia and the Boys and Girls Club of the CSRA –
Heritage Academy site, specifically $3,700 in expenses from the
Training line item to the Personnel line item in the
Agreement.
Background:Each year, Augusta, Georgia receives a direct allocation of funds
for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) from the
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD). Subsequently, Augusta Housing and Community
Development (HCD) solicits applications for funding under the
CDBG grant from local non-profits to administer Public Service
programs and recommends eligible applicants to the Augusta,
Georgia Commission as part of the Annual Action Plan to
provide services to low and low to moderate income residents of
Augusta, Georgia. Occasionally, these non-profit sub recipients
experience obstacles in expending funds in a timely manner and
may require an amendment to their contract agreement with
Augusta, Georgia to ensure they are able to meet the regulatory
requirements of expenditure eligibility in a timely manner. This
sub recipient, Boys and Girls Club of the CSRA – Heritage
Academy site, deemed it more beneficial to their agency budget
to allocate funds for staffing needs in support of their
program. Thus, the agency is requesting to amend their
agreement to support economic development through
employment compensation for program staff supporting the
activities covered under the terms of their Agreement. Boys and
Girls Club is requesting to move funds allocated under the
agreement in the amount of $3,700 from the Training line item
to the Personnel line item to facilitate the timely expenditure of
these funds in compliance with HUD requirements. This request
does not represent a change in the overall contract amount.
Analysis:Approval of amending the 2018 Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) Agreement between Augusta, Georgia and
the Boys and Girls Club of the CSRA – Heritage Academy site,
to move $3,700 in expenses from the Training line item to the
Personnel line item, will allow the Boys and Girls Club of the
CSRA to expend funds in an timely manner in compliance with
the applicable regulations for Public Service costs under the
HUD-funded CDBG program for youth services provided within
Augusta-Richmond County.
Financial Impact:The requested amendment represents a reallocation of existing
budget across line item categories. The amendment requests to
move $3,700 in expenses from the 2018 CDBG Agreement with
Boys and Girls Club of the CSRA– Heritage Academy site from
the Training line item into the Personnel line item. This request
does not represent a change in the overall contract amount.
Alternatives:Deny HCD’s request to authorize amending the 2018
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Agreement
between Augusta, Georgia and Boys and Girls Club of the
CSRA – Heritage Academy to move $3,700 in expenses from
the Training line item into Personnel costs.
Recommendation:Motion to authorize amending the 2018 Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) Agreement between
Augusta, Georgia and the Boys and Girls Club of the CSRA –
Heritage Academy site, specifically $3,700 in expenses from the
Training line item to the Personnel line item in the Agreement.
