TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Mark A. Rohloff, City Manager
DATE: January 28, 2022
RE: Cooperative Purchase of 2022 Vehicles for Fire Department and GO Transit ($62,412.00)
BACKGROUND
The Common Council allocated funds in the 2022 CIP for the purchase of new vehicles for the Fire Department
and GO Transit. This memo addresses the procurement of two vehicles for these departments using a
cooperative purchase under state contract with Ewald Automotive Group.
ANALYSIS
Purchasing has confirmed that Ewald Automotive Group holds the State of Wisconsin Department of
Administration contract (#505ENT-M21-VEHICLES-03) for Ford vehicles. The table below lists the two vehicles
being procured, the amount allocated for each vehicle in the 2022 CIP, state contract pricing and the account
numbers to be charged.
FISCAL IMPACT
Using state contract pricing the City will realize discounts of $14,495. The total fiscal impact for these two
vehicles via state contract pricing is $62,412.00. Some of the remaining funds in each CIP account will be used
by the Mechanics Division to procure the necessary items to complete the setup for each vehicle that may include
seat covers, radios, lighting, sirens and floor mats.
RECOMMENDATION
Section 12-15 of the Municipal Code provides that subject to approval of the City Manager, cooperative
purchases pursuant to a contract with any other local, state or federal governmental unit or agency may be made
without following a competitive bidding or quotation process. In accordance with Section 12-15 of the Municipal
Code and because this cooperative purchase is in excess of $25,000, I am hereby submitting a report of this
purchase to the Common Council. If you have any questions on this purchase please contact me.
