RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute an increase to Purchase Order #24032 with Cooper Trucking on behalf of the Department of Public Works, in the amount of $250,950.00 for truck transport services for the 2009 Chip Seal Program. This is the first year of a two year extension of the purchase order.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The additional costs of $250,950.00 for the 2009 Chip Seal Program is budgeted for FY 2009/2010.

BACKGROUND:

The placement of rock chip seal to resurface County roads is a long established preventative maintenance practice. It is not economical for the Public Works Department to own and operate the number of trucks necessary to support the Chip Seal Program. Trucking service has historically been procured from outside vendors. This is the first year of a two year extension of the purchase order.
