A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ATLANTIC BEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING
THE LEASE -PURCHASE OF A NEW 2018 VAC -CON VACUUM TRUCK WITH
FREIGHTLINER CHASSIS.
WHEREAS, many municipalities, including our neighboring cities, own and operate jet -vac trucks
to perform regular maintenance on their stormwater and sanitary sewer infrastructure, and to respond to
specific emergency situations; and
WHEREAS, City staff has determined we will benefit from an operational standpoint, and more
efficiently and economically perform at our high level of service by purchasing this equipment; and
WHEREAS, this equipment will allow the Public Works and Public Utilities crews to effectively
clean and maintain sewer and stormwater lines. Both Departments have outsourced similar services for
both routine/preventive maintenance and emergency response situations such as flooding and sewer
backups; and
WHEREAS, having this equipment available in-house will be invaluable for both scheduled and
reactive/emergency maintenance activities. On the preventive maintenance side, it will reduce costs over
outsourcing and allow for a more comprehensive scheduled maintenance program. In addition, having the
equipment in-house, emergency response time will dramatically improve for call -outs and emergency
situations; and
WHEREAS, Option 1 of a five year lease -purchase with Leasing 2, Inc. of a new 2018 Vac -Con
Vacuum Truck with Freightliner Chassis allows for five annual payments of $73,675.46 for a total amount
of $368,377.30 (equipment plus finance cost).
WHEREAS, The first year's payment will require a budget mod transferring the necessary funds
into the 6400 accounts (Machinery & Equipment) within the Sewer and Stormwater Funds, while
additional year payments will be similarly budgeted; and
NOW THEREFORE, be it resolved by the City Commission of the City of Atlantic Beach as
follows:
SECTION 1. The City Commission hereby authorizes the City Manager to execute the lease to
purchase a new 2018 Vac -Con Vacuum Truck with Freightliner Chassis through Leasing 2, Inc.;
