County Code Enforcement Department.
Background:Fleet Management would like to request replacement of 2 older
vehicles used by Code Enforcement inspectors. The designated
vehicles are in dire need of replacement.
The 2 older vehicles are asset 204324, a 2005 model Ford Ranger
with 148,417 miles, and asset F00087, a 2001 Ford Ranger
150,262 miles. These vehicles need replacement due to
unreliability and maintenance problems. The vehicle evaluations
and bid tab sheet results are attached for your review.
The 2 new replacement vehicles are Ford F150 pickup trucks to
replace the no longer available Ford Rangers. The new trucks are
powered by a 6 cylinder engine therefore increasing fuel
efficiency. These vehicles are used primarily for transportation
for the inspectors to various jobsites.
Analysis:The Procurement Department published a competitive bid using
the Demand Star application for the 6,000 GVW pickup trucks:
Bid 15-239 results were as follows: (1) Allan Vigil Ford =
$20,944.00 each; (2) Bobby Jones Ford = $21,561.00 each; (3)
Fairway Ford = $20,777.00 each; (4) Langsdale Chevrolet =
$21,749.00 each; and (5) Master Buick GMC = $28,488.00 each.

2016 Budget Amendment
Department:Planning & Development
Presenter:Rob Sherman
Caption:Request correction to the Building Inspection 2016 Budget to
provide funding for the creation two new personnel to staff the
satellite office in the southern part of the City.
Background:The Planning & Development Department proposed the
establishment of a satellite office in the southern part of the City
as a new program under the 2016 Budget. The operation of the
office will be funded from the General Fund and the Building
Inspection Reserve Fund. For the successful operation of the
satellite office two new personnel (License & Permit Technician
and Administrative Assistant) funded under the Building
Inspection Reserve Fund were also proposed in the budget.
Analysis:The satellite office funding was approved; the two positions,
which were also recommended by the Administrator, were
inadvertently not included in the presentation for Commission
approval. Approval of these two positions will require no funding
from the General Fund since the Building Fund operates using the
regulatory fees generated by its operation.
Financial Impact:Building Inspections Fund 217-07-2210 Administrative
