Russo, City Manager FROM: Sylvia Flores, Cultural & Community Services Director DATE: 3/15/2018 RE: Purchase of a Shuttle Bus from Eldorado National (Kansas) Inc. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Commission consider purchasing a new shuttle bus from Eldorado National (Kansas) Inc. for$137,567.00. This bus would replace Shuttle Bus #1030, which was purchased in 2010, and has been in use for 8 years now. REASONS: The City offers free shuttle service to the community 7 days a week, through three different lines. In addition, we offer transportation to Mount Sinai several days a week (outside of the regular shuttle service) and transportation for various events and activities (such as Cultural Event Trips, movie nights, concerts, etc.). In order to meet the needs of the shuttle routes, as well as these additional services, and minimize any breaks in service due to bus maintenance, it is recommended that we maintain a fleet of five (5) reliable shuttle buses. Shuttle Bus #1030 (currently in our fleet)was purchased in 2010, and is reaching the end of its useful life span (typically 7 years). This new bus would allow for us to take Bus #1030 out of circulation. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: 41 With the purchase of this new bus, our fleet would consist of six (6)total buses, three (3)of which will be 6 years old. FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are budgeted for and available in 110-6-5440-464100. ATTACHMENTS: Description Resolution HGAC Award Letter 2018 Aerolite Quote ElDorado Warranty Information Item Number: 10.D. 42
