Russo, City Manager <br />FROM: Fred A. Maas, Chief of Police <br />Michael A. Grandinetti, Police Captain <br />DATE: 10/16/2014 <br />Approval to Purchase Three (3) 2015 Harley Davidson <br />RE: Police Road King Motorcycles and associated <br />emergency lighting and equipment at a cost not to <br />exceed $68,696.28. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager <br />to purchase Three (3) 2015 Harley Davidson Police Road King Motorcycles and associated emergency <br />lighting and equipment at a cost not to exceed 568,696.28. <br />REASONS: <br />The Sunny Isles Beach Police Department solicited bids from three (3) vendors for the purchase of three <br />(3), 2015 Harley Davidson Police Motorcycles. Chester's Harley Davidson of Ft. Lauderdale was the <br />most responsive, responsible bidder <br />ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: <br />The Sunny Isles Beach Police Department is nearing the end of our current two (2) year lease of our <br />Police Motorcycles. After much research, staff believes that it would be more cost effective to purchase <br />our police motorcycles, extending the rotation to a three year cycle while still maintaining a high resale <br />value due to the limited mileage and condition of the motorcycles. During this transition cycle, we <br />would purchase three (3) Motorcycles while continuing to lease three (3). <br />All emergency lighting and equipment will be purchased and installed by Strobes -R -Us, Inc. <br />FUNDING SOURCE: <br />
