RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute on behalf of the Public Works Director, a purchase order with Northbay Petroleum, in an amount not to exceed $375,000 for diesel and unleaded fuel, for the period of February 1, 2015 through January 31, 2016, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This cost is to be funded through Public Works 14/15 Fleet ISF budget. (100% Internal Service Fund – Fleet)

BACKGROUND:

Public Works Fleet Services is responsible for the County fueling station on Waterbird Way in Martinez. The Materials Management Division (Materials) purchases fuel for the station by accepting daily bids from fuel distributors. There are currently five vendors submitting bids and Materials is set up to purchase from all five of them. However, all five of the vendors are in need of new purchase orders. Southern Counties Fuels is the County's primary vendor, followed by Ramos Oil Co., Inc., Northbay Petroleum, Mansfield Oil and Hunt & Sons, Inc. This request is for a purchase order with Northbay Petroleum.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, the purchase of diesel and unleaded fuel through Northbay Petroleum will discontinue.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
