RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute on behalf of the Interim Public Works Director, a purchase order with Southern Counties Fuel in an amount not to exceed $900,000 for the purchase of fuel for the period of February 1, 2018 through January 31, 2019, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Fleet Services, ISF budgets.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this purchase order is not approved, fuel for the Waterbird Fueling Facility will not be purchased.

BACKGROUND:

Public Works Fleet Management is responsible for the County fueling station on Waterbird Way. The Materials Management division purchases fuel for the station by accepting daily bids from fuel distributors. They currently have five vendors submitting bids and are set up to purchase from four of them. Any local vendors interested in supplying fuel to the County are encouraged to visit the Public Works Materials counter and get the necessary information to start submitting daily bids. Two of our vendors are in need of a new purchase order. Southern Counties is our primary vendor, followed by Golden Gate, Ramos, and Hunt & Sons.
