WHEREAS, At the February 17, 2026 City Council meeting, the City Council approved the purchase of thirteen (13) vehicles from the respective lowest responsible bidders; and
WHEREAS, the purchase and associated equipment installation costs exceeded the budgeted amount for the thirteen (13) vehicles; therefore, an appropriation from the Vehicle Replacement Fund (501) to Account No. 501-0560-431-4384 in the amount of $87,179 was necessary to complete the purchase; and

WHEREAS, the correct lowest responsible bidder is Serramonte Ford in the amount of $55,741; and
WHEREAS, this correction lowers the purchase price by $2,492 and, therefore, reduces the required appropriation from the Vehicle Replacement Fund (501) to Account No. 501-0560-431-4384 from $87,179 to $84,687 (a $2,492 decrease); and WHEREAS, All other vehicle awards approved on February 17, 2026 remain unchanged.
