Funding in the amount of $250,000 was budgeted in the Agency's adopted FY 2008-2009 budget for the CBS Program to cover the cost of program personnel services, maintenance and operations, and equipment. CURRENT ISSUE: Pursuant to the Agreement, a three-person team has been assembled. These staff members have been hired by the Agency as temporary employees; however, they are under the day-to-day supervision of Parks. They have been cross-trained in landscape maintenance, tree trimming, graffiti abatement and general construction, and have completed several projects from the downtown area to the Metrolink. A work van has also been purchased by the Agency. In order to facilitate the efficient maintenance of large landscaped areas, the CBS team needs a diesel powered commercial riding lawn mower. The mower's 10-12 foot wide cutting capacity will greatly accelerate the mowing of large areas of turf. This purchase is part of the $250,000 CBS program budget. Bids have been solicited with the lowest of three quotes provided by STAR in the amount of$51,437 for the purchase of the Toro GM 4000 4WD mower. This quote was obtained using the California Multiple Award Schedules (CMAS) contract through the California Department of General Services. ENvmONMENTAL IMPACT: Approval of this equipment purchase has no environmental impact under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") Guidelines. FISCAL IMPACT: The cost ofthe Toro GM 4000 4WD mower is $51,437. RECOMMENDATION: That the Mayor and Common Council and the Community Development Commission adopt the attached Resolution(s). -- c:: P:\Agendas\Comm Dev CommissionlCDC 2009101-20-09 CBS & Blight Abatement - Lawn MowerPurchase.doc COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 01120/2009 Agenda Item Number: ~'3i 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 RESOLUTION NO.
