(B) CUBICLES AND CHAIRS FOR RECORDERS COURT

It is requested that Council approve the purchase of cubicles and chairs from

The Hon Company c/o Malone Office Environments (Muscatine, IA) in the amount of

do this, individual work areas are needed. When two people are out at the same

between departments. Everything will now be handled at one window.

EMERGENCY PURCHASES ? INFORMATION ONLY

1) UNFORSEEN WORK REQUIRED FOR REPLACEMENT OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AT BENNING

PARK:

On March 26, 2018, Pubic Works notified the City Manager about unforeseen work

required for the replacement of the electrical system at Benning Park.

Per Resolution #403-17, Council approved the project to replace the electrical

system at Benning Park, which was awarded to Georgia Power.

Georgia Power is on site and has begun the work and found there was no conduit

in place to run the lines to the various points of need throughout the park.

There were no as-built or plans available to reference prior to this project,

so once the concrete was removed, it was discovered there was no conduit to

safely transport power from point A to point B.

The costs to have this conduit installed will be an additional $15,000.

If the project had to be stopped, at this point, it would be considered a

safety issue for our electricians and anyone else who ventures to turn on the

lights for this park. Additionally, Georgia Power has notified Public Works

that if they leave at this point due to no conduit, they will have to

reschedule for completion. In the meantime, the City would run the risk of

someone turning on these lights and being shocked.

The City Manager approved the Emergency Purchase on March 26, 2018.

Funds are available in the FY18 Budget: OLOST ? Infrastructure Fund ? Public

Works ? Infrastructure/LOST ?General Construction ? Benning Park Transformer

Replacement; 0109 ? 260 ? 9901 ? 7661 ? 96051 ? 20180.

2) REPLACEMENT VEHICLE FOR SPECIAL ENFORCEMENT/ANIMAL CONTROL:

On March 26, 2018, Pubic Works notified the City Manager about an

administrative vehicle, Vehicle #11176, was totaled in a two car accident,

whereby the City was not at fault. Insurance proceeds have reimbursed the City

for the value of the car, in the amount of $7,000.

Vehicle #11176 was a 2010 Ford Fusion used by the Special Enforcement Division

staff to go to 16 various Veterinarian offices to collect rabies information,

as well as, sold permit information on a monthly basis. It is was also used

for the mail and to go purchase feed for Animal Care and Control Center, as

well as, used to pick up assigned inmates to work at the ACC. In addition to

the daily use of this vehicle it is also used to transport display items needed

for off-site events. This totaled vehicle has been placed in salvage and the

division has been using Animal Control trucks to handle the administrative

needs for this division.

Previous vehicles purchased for Animal Control had cloth seats, which did not

hold up under the stresses of transporting animals, equipment, crates, etc. to

off-site adoption locations, as well as, other events. In the process of

obtaining the specs for the replacement SUV for Animal Control it was

discovered that the model Explorer under state contract would not allow for

vinyl rear seats. Therefore, the Department requested approval of an

emergency purchase to replace the vehicle with a new Pursuit Utility Vehicle

(Explorer). The vehicle will be used as a true utility vehicle. With the

Department?s extensive use of the vehicle, vinyl rear seating and floors is

required. However, the only SUV that offers this seating and floor covering

option is the Pursuit Utility Vehicle. The only difference in the two

vehicles outside of the identifying name is the ability to obtain the vinyl and

other Public Safety options. There will be ?NO? Public Safety options on this

vehicle, with the exception of the pursuit rated tires that will be changed

upon receipt. The replacement vehicle will be purchase via Georgia State

Contract #99999-SPDES40199409 from Wade Ford at a cost of $27,295.00.

The City Manager approved the Emergency Purchase on April 4, 2018.

Funds are available in the FY18 Budget: General Fund ? Public Works ? Special

Enforcement ? Light Vehicles; 0101 ? 260 ? 2400 ? SPCL ? 7721.
