The City requires replacement of an existing Dodge Charger, for the Police Department, which was involved in an accident. The vehicle was inspected by the City's Fleet Manager and First Vehicle Services, the City's vehicle maintenance company, and was determined vehicle was repairable, but the costs to do so were not fiscally appropriate due to the vehicles age and mileage.

Commission approval is requested for the purchase of one (1) Ford Police Interceptor Utility AWD 3.3L V6 from Alan Jay Automotive Management, Inc. d/b/a Alan Jay Fleet Sales in the amount of $36,840.00, utilizing the Sourcewell Contract #2021 120716-NAF.

Because the purchases will be made using existing governmental bids and contracts, the City’s formal bidding procedures are hereby waived pursuant to Section 5-173 (c) (4) of the Code of the City of Sunrise, Florida.

Although the opportunity was presented to the local Ford Dealer, they could not provide pricing for the vehicle currently proposed for purchase at this time.
