Specific Explanation:
The Director of Fleet Management Department and the Chief Procurement Officer recommend that City Council approve the purchase of one (1) skid steer loader through the Interlocal Agreement for Cooperative Purchasing with Sourcewell in the total amount of $89,800.00 for the Houston Police Department and that authorization be given to issue a purchase order to Doggett Heavy Machinery. The department personnel will utilize this skid steer loader to maintain the Dart Street evidence, property, and investigational storage lot. Funding for this purchase is included in the adopted FY22 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
