A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
REDDING AUTHORIZING THE LEASE/PURCHASE OF TWO
SCHWARZE STREET SWEEPER UNITS BY THE STORM DRAIN
UTILITY, NOT TO EXCEED $245,838.46, WITHOUT
COMPETITIVE BIDDING.
WHEREAS:
A. The Fiscal Year 1999-2000/2000-2001 Budget provides for the lease/purchase of
replacement street sweeper units for the Storm Drain Utility.
B. An analysis of the units on the market indicates that the Schwarze Street Sweeper is the
only known supplier of the particular configuration required by the Storm Drain Utility, including, but
not limited to, the amount of useable debris storage (7 cubic yards v. 6 cubic yards); the water capacity
for use in cleaning operations (440 gallons vs. 325 gallons); a rear hydraulic dump which limits employee
exposure to unknown substances and/or back strain during unloading operations; and increased
productivity due to the dump feature.
C. The City's purchasing system authorizes the waiver of formal bidding procedures when
there is only one available source which can supply the subject matter of the contract.
NOW, �HEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL FINDS, DECLARES AND RESOLVES
THAT:
l. There is only one known supplier that can supply the necessary Schwarze Street Sweeper
units with the particular configuration required by the Storm Drain Utility: Municipal Maintenance
Equipment of Sacramento.

procedures be dispensed with.

on behalf of the City of Redding with Municipal Maintenance Equipment of Sacramento, in an amount
not to exceed $245,838.46, for the lease/purchase of two Schwarze Street Sweeper units for the Storm
Drain Utility. Further, the City Clerk is directed to attest the Mayor's signature and affix the seal of
the City.
