RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute, on behalf of the Public Works Director, a purchase order with Enterprise Rent-A-Car in an amount not to exceed $200,000.00, for car and light truck rentals, for the period of November 1, 2015 through October 31, 2016, Countywide. (100% Department User Fees)

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Department User Fees

BACKGROUND:

Public Works Fleet Services is responsible for county wide vehicle rentals. There are various reasons for requiring vehicle rentals, most recently when the Library required several bobtail type box trucks for long periods of time. The District Attorney recently hired several new investigators and needed vehicles for them while new cars were on order through Fleet Services. The Elections office needed a large number of rental units for the November election last year. Fleet Services is requesting a one year purchase order for vehicle rentals.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, renting cars and light trucks through Enterprise Rent-A-Car will discontinue.
