RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA WAIVING THE COMPETITIVE BID
PROCESS AND AUTHORIZING THE USE OF VARIOUS
ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS AND
AUTHORIZED REPAIR SHOPS THROUGH DECEMBER 31,
2026
WHEREAS, the Citys equipment and vehicle fleet consists of different pieces which at
times require varying repairs; and
WHEREAS, the City utilizes the services of various Original Equipment Manufacturers
(OEMs) and authorized repair shops for the repair of the Citys fleet vehicles and equipment to
ensure that the Citys equipment and fleet is available for use; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Chula Vista Municipal Code 2.56.070 (B)(3) the City
Council may waive the competitive bidding requirements if determined that the competitive
bidding requirements as applied are impractical, impossible, or that the City interest would be
materially better served by applying a different purchasing procedure approved by the Citys
Purchasing Agent as being consistent with good purchasing practices; and
WHEREAS, during its normal course of business, it is impossible to predict what repairs
may be necessary in a Fiscal Year; and
WHEREAS, due to the limitations in the number of OEMs and authorized repair shops in
the area with specialized knowledge and expertise, it is impractical to obtain three competitive
quotes on any individual repairs, especially those of a time sensitive nature; and
WHEREAS, the use of authorized OEMs and repair shops allows City vehicles and
equipment to retain their warranties, while servicing outside of these authorized OEMs and
repair shops could invalidate these warranties; and
WHEREAS, the OEMs and authorized repair shops provide greater knowledge and
experience in the repair of the specialized equipment and fleet thereby guarantee that necessary
repairs will be completed in a timely and thorough manner, and at a competitive cost; and
WHEREAS, based on the foregoing recitals, the Purchasing Agent has approved the
proposed purchasing procedure for OEMs and authorized repair shops as consistent with good
purchasing practices.
