RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Authorize the use of Sourcewell’s (formerly National Joint Powers Alliance)
National Cooperative Agreement No. 122017-TYM with TYMCO, Inc. for the
purchase of a new TYMCO Model 210 sweeper and cab/chassis equipment; and
2. Authorize the purchase of the new TYMCO Model 210 sweeper and cab/chassis
equipment for $134,251.12 from TYMCO, Inc.
BACKGROUND
The high performance street sweeper is essential to maintain clean streets and to
promote public sanitation. The existing sweeper, Unit 390, a 2001 Freightliner FL 70
TYMCO 600 street sweeper, has been in use for twenty years and has exceeded its
intended service life. This street sweeper was used by the Maintenance Services Division
to respond to after-hour calls, accident cleanups and emergency responses. However,
with its high mileage and poor condition, the existing sweeper has significant mechanical
wear and tear, rendering this unit to be unreliable and inefficient.
ANALYSIS
Staff reviewed the needs of the City’s street sweeping maintenance and determined that
the TYMCO Model 210 sweeper meets the requirements. It is smaller and a more efficient
unit that requires only a “Class C” California driver’s license to operate. The TYMCO
Model 210 street sweeper is a gasoline powered chassis with a gasoline powered
auxiliary engine. In addition, the street sweeper is a high performance unit that is
equipped with all the necessary attachments, including safety and warning devices such
as rear-view camera and back-up alarm.
2
Purchasing this street sweeper through Sourcewell meets all requirements set forth in the
City of Costa Mesa’s Purchasing Policy and all requirements set forth by the State of
California in regards to regional cooperative purchasing agreements. The National Joint
Powers Association (NJPA) established an approved vendor list following a nationwide
competitive bid process. This process confirms that the City still receives the lowest
available pricing, and meets the competitive bid process requirements. The City has
utilized Sourcewell successfully for several previous vehicle related purchases.
The Sourcewell quote is included as Attachment No. 1, and the specifications of this street
sweeper are shown in Attachment No. 2.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
The City Council could choose not to authorize the use of the national cooperative
agreement with TYMCO, Inc. This will require staff to initiate formal bidding process,
which will take significantly more time to complete. However, formal bidding may not
result in lower prices than the proposed Sourcewell pricing.
FISCAL REVIEW
The Sourcewell purchase quote is $134,251.12 that includes all parts and equipment for
the procurement and delivery. The Public Services Department has realized sufficient
General Fund savings in the current fiscal year through retirement, attrition, and fiscally
prudent spending practices to fund the sweeper replacement.
LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney’s Office has reviewed this report and approves it as to form.
CITY COUNCIL GOALS & PRIORITIES:
In 2021, the City Council adopted a list of goals and priorities. This project works toward
achieving the following City Council goal:
“Maintain and Enhance the City’s Infrastructure, Facilities, Equipment, and
Technology.”
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Authorize the use of Sourcewell’s (formerly National Joint Powers Alliance)
National Cooperative Agreement No. 122017-TYM with TYMCO, Inc. for the
purchase of a new TYMCO Model 210 sweeper and cab/chassis equipment; and
2. Authorize the purchase of the new TYMCO Model 210 sweeper and cab/chassis
equipment for $134,251.12 from TYMCO, Inc.
