On February 7, 2024, the City Commission approved Resolution No. R-2024-039, which authorized a Blanket Purchase Agreement (“BPA”) with United Rentals (North America) Inc. for equipment rentals for the Department of Public Utilities (“Department”) in an amount up to $150,000.00 from February 7, 2024, to August 27, 2024.
On July 17, 2024, the first renewal of the BPA, for the period from August 28, 2024, to August 27, 2025, was approved for $200,000.00.
The Department is now requesting an increase to this BPA from $200,000.00 to
$450,000.00 to ensure sufficient equipment is available for the impending rainy, king tide, and hurricane seasons. The requested rental equipment will be used as needed for Stormwater, Underground Utilities, and Lift Station event preparations and response.
According to Section 38.48 of the Procurement Code, any change order that the City Manager cannot approve must be formally approved by the City Commission.
