AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET
DEPARTMENT: Procurement & Compliance
ACM: David Gaines
DATE: December 17, 2020
SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a contract with Bond Equipment Company, Inc.,
through the Buy Board Cooperative Purchasing Network Contract #601-19, for the purchase of two (2)
Rear Load Refuse Trucks for the Solid Waste Department; providing for the expenditure of funds therefor;
and providing an effective date (File 7516 – awarded to Bond Equipment Company, Inc., in the not-to-
exceed amount of $590,864).
INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
The proposed contract is for the purchase of two (2) rear load refuse trucks for the Solid Waste Department.
The trucks will be built using Crane Carrier low entry chassis with Heil 25 yd rear load refuse bodies.
Both trucks are fleet replacements approved in the FY20/21 budget. Trucks being replaced are 2011 and
2012 models with adjusted replacement dates of 10/2021. They have accrued $101,207 and $108,578 in
lifetime to date maintenance costs respectively and meet recommended replacement criteria. The Crane
Carrier chassis are a true “low entry” design with an 18” floor height for ergonomic entry and exit for both
the driver and passenger. This is a departure from previous cab designs from Peterbilt and it is believed that
these will provide the operator with a higher level of safety and comfort for the repetitive ingress and egress
motion experienced throughout the day.
Pricing obtained through the Buy Board Cooperative Purchasing Network has been competitively bid and
meets the statutory requirements of Texas Local Government Code 271.102.
PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (COUNCIL, BOARDS, COMMISSIONS)
On February 1, 2005, Council approved the interlocal agreement with the Buy Board Cooperative
Purchasing Network (Ordinance 2005-034).
On December 14, 2020, this item will be presented to the Public Utilities Board (PUB) for consideration.
RECOMMENDATION
Award a contract with Bond Equipment Company, Inc., for the purchase of two (2) Rear Load Refuse
Trucks for the Solid Waste Department, in the not-to-exceed amount of $590,864.
