Resolution No. 2018-49 Authorize the Purchase of a New Street
Sweeper from Yukon Equipment, Inc.
The purpose of this memo is to recommend passage of Resolution 2018-49; to authorize a Bid
Award to Yukon Equipment, Inc. for the purchase of a new Elgin Street Sweeper in the amount
of $289,571.00.
This is a planned replacement, and is included in the City 's current Annual Budget , as indicated
within the Equipment Replacement Fund. This new sweeper will replace an existing 1998 model.
A formal Invitation to Bid was advertised on August 1, 2018, with Bids due on August 15 , 2018.
Yukon Equipment, Inc. was found to be the lowest responsive Bidder.
It should be noted the Equipment Replacement Fund indicated a planned replacement cost of
$210,421.00, however this cost was based on the replacement of the existing sweeper which was
purchased used from the Airport. The lower used purchase price resulted in a lower calculated
replacement cost , which accounts for the difference in actual requested funds . The Equipment
Replacement account can fund the amount without adversely affecting future planned
replacements .
Approval of this Resolution will allow the Public Works Department to continue to effectively
maintain our City Streets , minimize sand and debris from blocking storm drains, and eliminate the
expenses that are common with maintaining a twenty year old p iece of equipment.
The administration recommends this planned replacement.
Your support for Resolution 2018-49 is respectfully requested .
