III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION AND BACKGROUND:
The placement of rock chip seal to resurface County roads is a long established preventative
maintenance practice. It is not economical for the Public Works Department to own and operate
the number of trucks necessary to support the Chip Seal Program. Trucking service has
historically been procured from outside vendors.
The General Services Department's Purchasing Division solicited bids for truck transportation
services. The two vendors responding to the solicitation and the amounts bid are the following:
Serpa Trucking $216,000
A.G. Schwartz Trucking $217,000
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Chip Seal Program cannot proceed as planned without vendor furnished trucking services.
