City Council

30. APPROVE PURCHASE TWO (2) LOW-EMISSIONS VEHICLES FOR THE PLANNING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT UTILIZING SOUTH COAST AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT DISTRICT (AQMD) FUNDING RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Approve the purchase of two (2) vehicles for the Planning and Community Development Department, including one (1) vehicle for the Code Enforcement Division and one (1) vehicle for the Building and Safety Division, using South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) funds; and 2. Declare that the purchase of these vehicles is exempt from Montebello Municipal Code Section 3.20.080 since the acquisition of these vehicles would be impractical and uneconomic to procure through the standard bidding process to maintain the public safety for the proper operation of the City’s Code Enforcement and Building and Safety divisions; and 3. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents related to the purchase of two vehicles using AQMD funding (Account No. 245-99-6082) to fully cover the purchase of vehicles in an amount not-to-exceed $120,000; and 4. Declare the vehicles to be replaced as surplus and authorize the City Manager to dispose of them as per the City’s Municipal Code and related administrative policies; and 5. Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.
