WHEREAS, the current boat is 30 years old and was donated to the City in 2006. The unit is 15 years past its useful life and requires costly maintenance and repairs to remain operational. Additionally, new AQMD guideline s deem the engines that power the existing boat non-compliant by 2025 yearend, at which point the current unit must be retired. Ordering the replacement vessel now ensures there will be no lapse in service; and WHEREAS, Elastec, Inc. which comes equipped with customized hulls is the sole manufacturer of this type of unit in the United States; and WHEREAS, as a result of Elastec being the sole manufacturer of this type of unit in the United States, no useful purpose would be served by advertising for bids and to do so would constitute an idle and useless act and an unnecessary expenditure of public funds;
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Long Beach resolves as follows:
Section 1. The above recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein.
Section 2. The City Manager is hereby authorized to enter a contract and any amendments thereto with Elastec, Inc. for the purchase of an Elastec E30 Work Boat with trailer and other accessories , in an amount not to exceed $ 416,934, including taxes and fees.
