Purchasing: Authorization to dispose of surplus items at auction through Global Enterprises Mrs. Zan Fedorak, Purchasing Manager, stated the Facilities Maintenance Department is trying to expedite removal of all furniture and other items which remain in the Shalimar Annex to allow for demolition of the building. She stated departments have been allowed to go through the building to get any usable items. Mrs. Fedorak advised that she has a listing of additional surplus items she would like to add for the auction. she also noted there may be such items as doors, door frames, windows, etc. which may be salvaged from the Annex and put out for auction. Mrs. Fedorak reported the online auction services provided by our contract auctioneer Global Enterprises have generated more than double the revenue over the county’s onsite auctions. Mr. Parisot made motion, seconded by Mr. Boyles, to approve this agenda item and the additional lists of surplus items. Mrs. Fedorak stated she has supplied the Clerk with the lists. 5 yeas. 26. Airports: Authorization to re-advertise for vehicle lease quotes Mr. Boyles stated he realizes Airports Director Sunil Harman has inherited “all of this baggage” but he noticed the language of the lease agreement from two years ago stated the leased vehicles would have the county logo on them. He said either that was not done or the decals/logos did not stay on. He remarked that has bugged him because having the logos on the vehicles is a constant reminder for the employees driving them to be more attentive to their driving. Mr. Boyles noted there is no analysis to say that leasing the vehicles is fiscally the right thing to do. He said he understands we now may be under a time constraint and wondered if the lease could be extended. Mr. Harman acknowledged the constraint, saying the vehicles must be returned by June. He said the purchasing process will take 120 days and his primary concern is operational impact. Mr. Amunds asked if this item can be tabled until the next meeting. Mr. Harman responded by saying an analysis can be prepared in that timeframe. He stated he does not see any advantage of purchaSing vehicles, adding that he does not have $300,000 in the budget to purchase them. Upon further inquiry by Mr. Amunds regarding decals, Mr. Harman stated they can affix the magnetic decals. Mr. Parisot suggested decals be placed on February 18, 2014 -12- Minute Book 70, Page 250 Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners the windows. He said the magnetic decals could easily be removed. Mr. Boyles stated he is not suggesting anyone from the Airports Department has done anything they should not have with a vehicle. Mr. Harman reiterated his concerns on the timeline and operations constraints. He said the decals to be affixed would be specific to the Airports and the vehicles would also have “lights” and could be used as extra police vehicles. Mr. Amunds stated the leasing of the vehicles was done on a trial basis. He asked Mr. Harman if this is his recommendation as the director of the department. Mr. Harman replied, “Yes, commissioner. It works well.” Mr. Harris made motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot, to approve the department director’s request to solicit proposals to lease vehicles for the Airports Department with the stipulation the decal is placed on the vehicles. Mr. Boyles stated he wants a decal that is comparable to the county logo on other county vehicles. Mr. Harris said he cannot recommend magnetic ones because that do blow off and told Mr. Harman he would have to come up with something. 5 yeas. Mr. Boyles said the Board may want to consider leasing for the entire fleet of county vehicles. 29. Public Works: Task Order No. 1 with SCS Engineering for 2014 semiannual sampling and reporting of Baker Landfill at a not-to-exceed cost of $96,500 Mr. Hofstad stated there is a discrepancy between the agenda request and the actual task order document with regard to the not-to-exceed cost. The agenda request lists a cost of $99,300 and the Task Order reflects a cost of $96,500. He stated the correct not-to-exceed cost is $96,500 for Task Order #1. Mr. Boyles made motion, seconded by Mr. Parisot, to approve Task Order #1 with SCS Engineering and to clarify the correct cost is $96,500. 5 yeas. GROWTH MANAGEMENT - REQUST TO PURCHASE 19 CUTAWAY BUSES Mr. Elliot Kampert, Growth Management Director, requested approval to purchase 19 cutaway buses from Transit Plus Inc. using Florida State Contract #TRIPS-11-CA-TP at a total cost of $1,448,160. The purchase will be made with existing Federal Transit Administration (FTA) grant funds with no local funds required. Mr. Kampert stated Fleet Operations has confirmed the buses need to be replaced. Upon inquiry by Mr. Amunds, Mr. February 18, 2014 -13- Minute Book 70, Page 25] Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners Kampert stated the current vehicles are four years old and have 100,000 miles on them which is the FTA established life criteria for cutaway buses per FTA Circular 5010.1D. Mr. Harris expressed his concerns, saying we are starting to delete routes and are now talking about buying new vehicles. He referred to the statement that no local funds will be used and disagreed, saying federal tax dollars are used for the grants. Mr. Kampert stated that if the routes are deleted, the vehicles will be made available for other FTA transit providers. He stressed the importance of purchasing the new buses because the program is “hemorrhaging” money in maintenance costs, adding it is also a safety issue. Mr. Amunds remarked vehicles with more than 150,000 miles on
