DISCUSSION:

On January 21, 2020, City Council approved a contract with Municipal Maintenance Equipment to repair a patch truck in the amount of $12,000. Two subsequent repairs were completed on the same piece of equipment for an additional $12,562.48 over the approved contract amount. The repairs were authorized by City staff that were unfamiliar with the contracting process, therefore exceeding the term and amount of the contract.

Municipal Maintenance Equipment is the sole source provider for repairs on Spaulding Mfg., Inc. equipment. A Sole Source Justification is attached.

Fleet Maintenance staff is preparing to contract with Municipal Maintenance Equipment for a term of two years to avoid this occurring again.
