RESOLUTION NO. 2023-007
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA WAIVING THE COMPETITIVE BID PROCESS
AND AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF FORD MAVERICK
VEHICLES FROM PENSKE FORD LA MESA
WHEREAS, Chula Vista Municipal Code (CVMC) Section 2.56.070 contains the bidding
procedures and requirements for purchases of equipment exceeding $100,000; and
WHEREAS, CVMC Section 2.56.070(B)(3) authorizes the City Council to 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 City's Purchasing Agent as being
consistent with good purchasing practices; and
WHEREAS, due to global supply chain limitations, the number and types of vehicles
available for purchase at any given time are scarce and unpredictable; and
WHEREAS, City departments depend on reliable vehicles and equipment to perform
desired services for the citizens of Chula Vista; and
WHEREAS, the new Ford Mavericks will be assigned to Police Department Community
Service Officers, who are out in the field serving the community; and
WHEREAS, Penske Ford La Mesa has five Ford Maverick XL vehicles available to
purchase and available for delivery at a total cost of$131,107; and
WHEREAS, staff has determined that City's interest would be materially better served by
waiving the competitive bidding requirements for the proposed purchase to avoid delays associated
with direct factory orders or soliciting formal bids, which will minimize disruptions to operations
and program delivery; and
WHEREAS, the City's Purchasing Agent has determined that, given the limited inventory
and immediate need for purchase, the proposed purchase is consistent with good purchasing
practices; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends that Council waive the competitive bid process as
impractical and approve the purchase of these vehicles; and
WHEREAS, there are sufficient funds in the Measure A fund for the purchase of these
vehicles and the associated outfitting costs.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Chula Vista
that it waives the competitive bid process and authorizes the purchase of five Ford Maverick XL
vehicles from Penske Ford La Mesa at a total cost of$131,107.
