Background:
This purchase is to replace RD752, a 2004 Ford F750, with a new Ford F450. RD752 is scheduled for replacement and was included in the budget process. The new vehicle will be downsized, no longer requiring a commercial driver’s license (CDL) and adding flexibility to the department.
This purchase is exempt from the County's competitive bidding requirements pursuant to Section 22.3-302(12) of the Alachua County Procurement Code, Procurement of Supplies or Services under Contract with federal, state, or municipal governments or any other governmental agency or political subdivision provided the vendor extends the same terms and conditions of the Contract to the County. However, since the dollar amount of the purchase exceeds the purchasing authority of the Procurement Manager, this Purchase Order is being submitted for Board consideration and approval.
