Purchase of a Replacement Pick Up Truck
To approve the purchase of (1) 2020 Ford F350 XL 4WD Pickup with plow from
MHQ of Marlborough MA for the MACP/GBPC price of $42,645. Funding will
be through Department: 177 Parks & Recreation; Fund: Trust; Activity: CERF.
Quote sheet
The Parks and Recreation Department has this truck on CERF for replacement in
FY21. MHQ provided a quote based off of the MACP/GBPC contract for a price
of $42,645. This vehicle came under the budgeted replacement cost of $46,903.
This vehicle is not available as a CNG vehicle.
The truck will be replacing unit #08-532 that is on the CERF replacement list
originally scheduled for replacement in FY20 but was deferred to FY21. The
current vehicle was donated to Grow Nashua earlier this spring because it was on
the replacement list. This truck will be used for plowing inner city routes and 14
elementary schools in the winter and will be used preforming park maintenance
duties during the remainder of the year. The vehicle comes with a standard three
year warranty. It is the recommendation of the Superintendent, Fleet Manager
and the Director to award this purchase to MHQ.
