RE: Sanitation Division 2.5 Cubic Yard End Loader
BACKGROUND
The Sanitation Division needs to replace their 1995 John Deere end loader that has logged over
10,000 hours being used year -round for brush grinding, leaf pickup and snow removal. This unit
has experienced much wear and tear over the years and now requires an estimated $23,000 in
repairs to rebuild its transmission and center pivots. Unfortunately this unit has come to the end
of its useful lifecycle for city needs. A new end loader will include a front snow plow /mid
mounted wing, grapple bucket and warranty coverage. The Council approved and allocated
$180,000 for a replacement end loader in the 2010 Sanitation Division's Recycling Operating
Budget.
ANALYSIS
Working in conjunction with the Street Division, Purchasing reviewed and prepared proposals
seeking vendors for this end loader. Bid requests were sent to vendors who have received
invitations to bids in previous years. In addition the bids were advertised in the local paper and
posted online on NovusVendor. Bids were received on February 25, 2010. The bid tab is
attached. Working with the Street Division, Purchasing reviewed the bids and concluded the low
bid from Brooks Tractor Inc. met the bid specifications.
FISCAL IMPACT
After trade -in this end loader will have a fiscal impact of $142,510.25. This item was budgeted in
the 2010 Sanitation Division's Recycling Operating Budget at $180,000. Funding for this item
would be charged to the Sanitation Division's Recycling account: 211- 0480 - 7204 - 00000.
RECOMMENDATION
Purchasing recommends the Common Council award this bid to Brooks Tractor Inc. for
$142,510.25.
Respectfully Submitted, Approved:

General Services Director
