Subject: Bid Award for 50-Foot Aerial Lift Truck
ISSUE
The Street Department's replacement of the 50-foot hydraulic telescopic aerial lift truck has
been competitively bid and is now ready for authorization to proceed.
BACKGROUND
Unit 1312 was originally purchased in 1986 and is past due for replacement. It was advertised
for bids on February 4, 2005, and again on February 11, 2005.
ANALYSIS
The 2005 budget for Streets included the replacement of the the old vacuum sweeper and the
1986 lift truck. The vacuum sweeper is a Tymco regenerative air sweeper and is to be
purchased through the City of Kenmore' s bid list. The aerial lift truck was advertised for bids
and the resulting base bid (without sales tax) was from Altec Industries for $135,635.00. This
exceeds the 2005 budget which was $130,000. Although the aerial lift truck is over budget,
money is available from the bid quotation on the sweeper which is $30,000 under the amount
budgeted. The Street budget analysis for fleet replacements in 2005 is as follows (see Lines 8
and 9, page 175, 2005 Budget):
50-foot Aerial Tymco Vacuum
Lift Truck Sweeper TOTAL
Base Bid $135,635.00 $132,084.63 $267,719.63
Sales Tax 11,935.88 12,019.70 23,955.58
TOTAL $147,570.88 $144,104.33 $291,675.21
BUDGET $130,000.00 $170,000.00 $300,000.00
(Budget - Total =) ($17,570.88) $25,895.67 $8,324.79
RECOMMENDATION
Forward to Council recommending award of bid to Altec Industries for an Aerial Lift Truck in
the amount of $147,570.88.

1. 50 Foot Aerial Lift Truck Bid A.ward An old vacuum sweeper truck and a 1986 lift truck
are both slated to be replaced this year. The aerial truck lift will have a slightly shorter reach than
the old unit, but it is more stout, and can lift heavier items. The bid came in over budget.
However, the bid for a vacuum sweeper came in quite a bit under budget, so between the two
units, they will both be within budget. The street sweeper is used for vegetation control, signal
maintenance, and issues like installin~ and maintaining cameras on TIB. Recommend bid
award of aerial lift truck to Altec Industries for $147,570.88 to COW and Ref!ular
meetine:s.
2. Solid Waste Rates Garbage rates will increase the first of April this year. The city is not
involved in setting the rates, as.it is in Sea Tac Disposal's contract that they can raise rates each
year. There are two components of the rates: the collection and the service. It is the service
portion that is being increased by 2.71 %. The smallest residential garbage cans will go up 4
cents, and the largest commercial container will increase from $60.90 to $62.55. Frank said
Tukwila rates are still a little lower than in our neighboring cities. Information.
3. Water Supply Pat reported the snow above the Cedar River is 8% of normal snow pack this
year. A statewide drought alert is in order, and almost everyone including Seattle Water is wary
of the drought that looks more and more probable unless there is a rainy spring and summer.
Conservation will be required to the maximum. Information.
