July 22, 2014 Council Report <br />2015 Ford Transit Cargo Van <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />Explanation: The purpose of this item is to obtain Council authorization to purchase a 2015 Ford Transit <br />Cargo Van. This vehicle will be used by the Public Works Department for tap water distribution service <br />and after hour standby duties. This truck is fully loaded with tools, parts and maps. It is used by the <br />standby duty person to respond quickly to emergencies such as water main breaks, house leaks, lift station <br />emergencies, and underground locate requests. It is also the take -home truck for the person on standby <br />duty. <br />The Chevrolet Suburban was not available in a3/4 ton model in 2014; a comparable vehicle was the Ford <br />Transit Van. This will be a good vehicle to work out of also, with sliding doors on both sides of the unit <br />allowing good access to tools, parts, and maps and a good amount of cargo space. <br />This vehicle is scheduled for replacement on a 5 -year cycle. The new vehicle will replace Vehicle #097, <br />a Chevrolet Suburban purchased in 2009. <br />Vehicle Condition Index: Public Works has implemented a Vehicle Condition Point Index System to <br />rate each new vehicle purchase. This system was developed by the American Public Works Association <br />(APWA) to be used by fleet managers all across the country. This new system factors in Age, <br />Miles /Hours, Reliability, Maintenance and Repair Costs, Vehicle Condition, and operating cost per mile. <br />Attached to this memo is the Vehicle Condition Point Index for vehicle #097 (the truck proposed to be <br />replaced). The score is a 30.5 and qualifies the vehicle for immediate replacement consideration. <br />The recommendation is to enter into an agreement with Midway Ford to pay for and take delivery of a <br />2015 Ford Transit Cargo Van. <br />Grant A W) ffcls, P.
