Runoff Permit requirements. The existing unit will be declared
surplus. The department is also requesting that funds from "fund 60"
be used and has appropriated approximately $130,000.00 for this

Memo
To: Bruce V. Malkenhorst, City Administrator
From: Dolores Fonseca, Purchasing Assistant�/,
Date: 03/21/02
Re: REQUISITION #1527
Attached for your approval is requisition #1527. The Community Services Department is in
need of anew street sweeper. The present unit is over 22 years old and is unreliable due to
several, significant breakdowns. In addition, the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) has adopted new Storm Water/Urban Runoff Permit requirements which the
present sweeper cannot meet (see attached memo). Upon replacement the old unit will be
declared as surplus.
The Purchasing Section requests authorization to seek bids for the new replacement. The
department appropriated $130,000.00 in the street equipment account however, is requesting
that funds from the "fund 60" be utilized for the purchase.
