Resolution 2018-23
The purpose of this memo is to recommend approval of Resolution 2018-23. Resolution
2018-23 authorizes the purchase of two 2018 Ford Police interceptor SUVs from Kendall
Fo rd for $35 ,930 .50 each, a total cost of $71 ,861.
The FY19 budget, up for approval at this same Council Meeting, includes the purchase
of two Ford Police Interceptors and Kendall Ford has been awarded , by the State of
Alaska , the State equipment fleet contract for those vehicles . In past years, the City of
Kenai has purchased police vehicles through State of Alaska fleet pricing, to help ensure
the City pays the lowest available cost for this equipment. The State of Alaska Contract
Fleet Award is an inherently competitive process, allowing for dealerships across the
State to bid on Police Interceptors. The local Kendall Ford dealership was contacted to
see if they could process the sale locally, and they determined those fleet sales needed
to be processed through their Anchorage dealership.
KMC 7 .15.070(b )(4) allows the City of Kenai to purchase equipment w ithout giving an
opportunity for competitive bidding if the equipment is purchasable under the contract of
another governmental agency in which contract the City is authorized to participate.
Thank you for your consideration.
