previously approved by the City Council for acquisition via direct purchase; and
WHEREAS, such acquisitions are to be sourced through the purchasing

Be it resolved by the City Council of the City of Corpus Christi, Texas:
Section 1. The City Council specifically finds the foregoing statements included in the

Equipment Replacement Fund and $41,520.50 from the General Fund. Subsequent to City
Council approval, the manufacturer cancelled production for a period of time, requiring the

Fleet Equipment Replacement Fund. Subsequent to City Council approval, the manufacturer
cancelled production for a period of time, requiring the reorder of the vehicles at an additional

Management–Facilities and Fleet Divisions, Engineering Services, Gas, Public Works–
Streets Division, Solid Waste Services, CCW–Wastewater Division, and the Police
Department are authorized to purchase the trucks and sedans, as specified, for a revised
