i <br /> Elk River <br /> Municipal Utilities UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING <br /> TO: FROM: <br /> Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission Wade Lovelette—Technical Services <br /> John Dietz—Chair Superintendent <br /> Al Nadeau—Vice Chair <br /> Daryl Thompson—Trustee <br /> MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: <br /> April 14, 2015 5.3 <br /> SUBJECT: <br /> 2015 Vehicle Purchases <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> Approved in the 2015 budget were a F250 pickup truck and a SUV. <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> Midway Ford is the vendor that was awarded the contract for State Contract pricing of vehicles. <br /> State contract pricing is the lowest pricing we can get and it takes the negotiating factor out. We <br /> have received the quote from Midway Ford for the 2016 Explorer. We are still waiting for the <br /> pricing of the pickups to come out; it sounds like early next week that pricing will be available. <br /> If the commission would like to keep the purchases of the vehicles local,than we will request a <br /> quote from the local Ford dealer. <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: <br /> Staff recommends approving the purchase of these two vehicles from either Midway Ford with <br /> the state contract pricing, or the local dealer if their quote comes in close to the state pricing. <br /> ATTACHMENTS: <br /> • Midway Ford Commercial Quote <br /> WI IRIAIURE1 Page 1 of 1 <br /> Reliable Public <br /> Power Provider P O W E R E D T O S E R V E <br /> 126 <br />
