To secure City Council authorization to purchase one (1) new Jeep Spray Truck from National Auto Fleet Group. |

The National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA) nationally solicits, evaluates and awards contracts through a competitive bid process. As a member of NJPA, the City is able to utilize NJPA bid awards for equipment purchases. Staff recommends piggybacking on the results of a recent NJPA competitive bid program, Contract #102811. The results deemed National Auto Fleet Group as the lowest responsive bid.

- Authorize the Finance Director to issue a purchase order in the amount of $35,820.80 to National Auto Fleet Group for the purchase of one (1) new Jeep Spray Truck.
