REPLACEMENT PROJECT - PHASE 2 – F2M22-53, C2M25-25, M2M26-10
On June 23, 2025, the City Council awarded a contract to Ramona Inc. for the Main Street
and Fourth Street Sewer Main Replacement Project - Phase 2 in an amount not to exceed
$2,941,665.50. The Project was originally proposed to provide slurry seal pavement on

ensures the roadway can withstand traffic loads, removes the deteriorated top layer and
any uneven patches from the sewer repairs. As part of this Change Order, damaged curb
and gutter and traffic loops will also be replaced.
Recommended Action:
City Council approve Change Order No. 1 for the Main
Street and Fourth Street Sewer Main Replacement Project – Phase 2, increasing Contract
No. C2M25-25 with Ramona Inc. by $190,914.66 and bringing the total revised contract

APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT WITH LENCO INDUSTRIES, INC. FOR THE
PURCHASE OF AN ARMORED VEHICLE – F2M26-6A, C2M26-2, M2M26-7
Currently, the Alhambra Police Department responds to various incidents by utilizing
standard issued patrol vehicles. When an incident requires a vehicle offering enhanced
protection, such as the routine execution of search warrants or other high-risk operations,
the Department must rely on borrowing an Armored Rescue Vehicle (ARV) from
neighboring cities including San Gabriel, Monterey Park, Baldwin Park, Arcadia, and
Glendale. The ARV can also be used in response to critical incidents to enhance
community and officer safety and improve scene containment and stabilization. Lenco
Industries, Inc. provided a quote of $123,690 for a used 2006 Lenco G2 Bearcat, which
was refurbished in 2017. Staff is recommending the purchase of a used ARV because a
new ARV takes approximately 12-18 months to manufacture and can cost $320,000.
Lenco is the sole source as other companies do not have the availability to a used ARV.
Sole source purchase is allowable per Alhambra Municipal Code Section 3.36.080(B)(2).
Recommended Action:
City Council award a contract, subject to final language
approval by the City Manager and City Attorney, to Lenco Industries, Inc. for the purchase
of an Armored Rescue Vehicle in an amount not to exceed $123,690; authorize the Chief
of Police to execute said agreement; and, direct staff to undertake the steps necessary to
finalize Council’s action. (M2M26-7) |
