CC 3 COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM January 14, 2025 PREPARED BY: Inge Elmes, OHV Manager SUBJECT: Approve Purchase of Grant Funded Big Tex Dump Trailer Background: The city of California City received grant funding for the purchase of a 2024 Big Tex Dump trailer to be used for the OHMVR Division ground operations grant program. This unit will be specifically used to assist in trash haul and clean up within the OHV riding areas. Throughout the years, there has been an increase in trash dumping in the second community. Current OHV fleet trucks must make multiple trips as the dumping has increased to larger and bulkier items. Trash clean-up is a large role within the ground operation grant project agreements. The addition of a dump trailer will assist the ground crew greatly in meeting grant obligations. The following quotes were obtained from three local trailer vendors. • Trailer Super Store $13,648.16 • Big Tex Trailer World $12,956.30 • The Trailer Zone $11,407.09 Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council approve quote from The Trailer Zone in the amount of $11,407.09 and not to exceed grant funding award of $15,000.00. Fiscal Impact: Purchase will be allocated in the amount of $11,407.09 to GL code 16-4253-740. No match is required. Attachments: Quotes
