INFORMATION /BACKGROUND
This request is for the purchase of one (1) Altec model AT41M Articulating Telescopic Aerial truck
mounted on a Dodge 5500 chassis for the Traffic Department. This truck is a replacement for a 2010 model
Altec aerial bucket that was transferred from the Electric Operations Department. The truck has exceeded
the useful lifecycle, meets all replacement criteria and will be auctioned after the new truck is put in service.
CFO approval was granted to use Red Light Camera Safety funds for this purchase.
Fleet Services, in agreement with the Denton Municipal Electric, Parks and Traffic Departments have
requested standardization to the Altec brand aerial body for all City of Denton bucket trucks. Altec
Industries Inc. provides factory-trained field service technicians for on-site diagnostics and repair. For
liability reasons, Fleet Services technicians do not make repairs to aerial equipment.
The new aerial bucket truck will be used for adding/removing signal heads and signal components on
horizontal and vertical signal poles, signal power service, fiber optic cable, street lights, trimming trees and
risers, off and on pavement and signs on the signals. Also used for towing a trailer to haul components to
the specific job site.
Altec Industries, Inc. sells direct to customers and provides cooperative contract pricing on Sourcewell
contract number 012418-ALT.
Pricing obtained through Sourcewell (formerly National Joint Powers Alliance) Cooperative Purchasing
Network has been competitively bid and meets the statutory requirements of Texas Local Government Code
271.102.
