RE: Hybrid Sedan Bid
BACKGROUND
In the 2009 CIP the Common Council approved allocation of $5,000 (with up to $20,000 coming
from federal transit aid) for the purchase of a hybrid sedan for the Transit Division. The new
sedan will replace a 1990 Chevy Astro van. The new sedan will be much more fuel efficient with
an EPA - estimated fuel economy of 40 city /43 highway miles per gallon.
ANALYSIS
Working in conjunction with the Transit and Street Divisions, Purchasing reviewed and prepared
proposals seeking vendors for this unit. Proposals were posted on NovusVendor, VendorNet and
were also sent to dealers that have responded to bids in the past. Bids were received on January
17, 2011 and the bid tab is attached. After reviewing the sole bid received we concluded it met
the minimum bid specifications.
FISCAL IMPACT
The bid for this unit is $21,470. Federal funding will cover 80% of the cost ($17,176) with the
remaining 20% to be covered by City funds ($4,294). The total fiscal impact will be $4,294. The
Common Council approved and allocated funding for this item in the 2009 CIP. Funding for this
item would be charged to CIP account: 511- 1728 -1757- 00000.
RECOMMENDATION
Purchasing recommends the Common Council award this bid to Honda Motorwerks of LaCrosse,
WI for $21,470.
