It is therefore recommended that the purchase be made without complying with the competitive bidding procedure set forth in the Municipal Code; and WHEREAS, there is an opportunity to piggyback State of California General Services Administration Contract No. GS-21 F-0206W with H&E Equipment Services to purchase one Genie TZ-50 Electric Boom Lift for an amount not to exceed $54,034.38; and WHEREAS, staff has confirmed that State of California General Services Administration Contract No. GS-21F-0206W with H&E Equipment Services was acquired through a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) process, and that the State of California Department of General Services procurement procedures are in substantial compliance with those of National City; and WHEREAS, the City Council previously authorized an appropriation of $46,000.00 from the General Fund for the purchase, however, the cost of the boom lift is $54,034.38, resulting in the need for additional appropriation from the General Fund fund balance in the amount of $8,034.38.
