HomeMy WebLinkAbout7/28/1999 - STAFF REPORTS (7) DATE: July 28, 1999 TO: City Council FROM: Director of Office of Management and Budget APPROVE SUPPLEMENT NUMBER 4 TO CALEASE MASTER LEASE/PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR PURCHASE OF TWO (2) FIRE ENGINES AND ONE (1) PARAMEDIC SQUAD UNIT. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve Supplement (Takedown) Number 4 in an amount not to exceed $710,000 under the Master Lease Agreement with CaLease to finance the purchase of two (2) Fire Engines and one (1) Paramedic Squad unit. BACKGROUND: The Office of Management and Budget recommends that the purchase of two (2) Fire Engines and one (1) Paramedic squad unit (Cost not to exceed $710,000) be financed on a lease/purchase basis over 10 years under the Mater Lease Agreement with CaLease approved by the City Council on October 21, 1998. Vehicles were described in reports to Council, which City Council has just reviewed and hopefully approved at this meeting. The Fire Engines will have useful life of at least ten (10) years and the Paramedic squad unit an estimated life of 5 to 7 years. Paying cash for these vehicles would place a substantial burden on the cash reserves of the City's MVR fund. The CaLease program will provide the required funding with a ten-year payback term at an interest rate in the mid 5% range. CaLease will finalize the interest rate through placement in the competitive market within ten (10) days after notification of approval by City Council. The payments will be semi-annual, due on December 30 and June 30. The CaLease program is a League of California Cities and California State Association of Counties sponsored program to provide California cities and Counties access to the best possible financing for large. capital acquisitions leveraging tax exempt interest rates. The fire engines become the property of the City outright at the end of the ten-year payment term. go B A APPROVED Dl_.CLT tFD A,�Ron Everett Director of Office of Management and Budget �etzJ Approved: P9 /,/- Rob W.
