The upgrade will make our system compliant until 2004. <br />Since time is of the essence, staff requests permission <br />to waive formal bidding and contract with Southern Petro <br />Systems. <br />Alternative No, 2 <br />Cease use of the existing underground fuel tanks and <br />utilize a credit card system to purchase fuel from local <br />vendors throughout the County. This would reduce travel <br />time in some cases, but the liability of large County <br />equipment using private facilities would increase. The <br />cost of this alternative is an increase of $100,000/year <br />to the County. <br />Alternative No. 3 <br />Contract with a mobile fuel company (Striker) to fuel <br />vehicles and equipment in the field or at the site. This <br />would also increase the cost by approximately <br />$100,000/year. <br />Staff recommends Alternative No. 1, whereby the tanks and pumps be <br />upgraded at a cost of $49,585. Since this work must be permitted <br />by January 1, 1999, staff recommends that the Board waive bidding <br />procedures and approve a purchase order with Southern Petro <br />Systems. Funding may be from reimbursement of costs associated <br />with Fleet Management fuel tank clean-up performed in 1994 by Gurr <br />Omega and/or Local Option Gas Tax. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Ginn, the Board <br />unanimously approved Alternate No. 1, whereby the <br />tanks and pumps be upgraded at a cost of $49,585; <br />waived bidding procedures and approved a purchase <br />order with Southern Petro Systems, as recommended <br />by staff. <br />DECEMBER 1, 1998 <br />-55- boor, 1.07 PAGEW"" " <br />
