Requested Action(s)
recommendation
a) BID WAIVER
1) Request to adopt the finding that purchasing the used equipment included in Quote #250305 for a model year 2020 Weiler P385B tracked asphalt paver with Mittry Construction would be a cost savings to Tehama County when compared to purchasing new equipment of the equivalent type and allows the County to take advantage of the low pricing for this locally sourced, unique paving equipment, without the time and expense involved with conducting a formal bid process
2) Request to find it in the best interest of the County to waive the formal bid
process for the acquisition of (1) one 2020 Weiler P385B Tracked Asphalt Paver based on the finding
b) Request approval and authorization for the Purchasing Department to issue a
purchase order to Mittry Construction for (1) one 2020 Weiler P385B Tracked Asphalt paver for a total of $95,988.75

Financial Impact:
Funds are budgeted in Road Fund 3011-57608 and is being fully funded with SB1 Road Maintenance Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) funds. There will be no impact to the General Fund.
Background Information:
The used acquisition of the asphalt paver will be replacing a 1999 model year paver that no longer meets current CARB (California Air Resources Board) standards. This commercial unit will be used to apply road materials to the road surface when paving or patching with asphalt and should serve the County for many years.
