There were fourteen other government entities besides Lawrence working on the bid including Douglas County and entities in the Kansas City area belonging to MACPP. This year the City of Overland Park headed the bidding process and the bids were approved by the Overland Park City Council on October 17, 2005. Ten vendors bid on 57 different vehicles.
Public Works, Solid Waste Division is requesting three (3) ˝ ton pickups, the Police Department is requesting one (1) Expedition, Utility Billing is requesting one (1) ˝ ton pickup, and Utilities Department is requesting two (2) F-550 trucks. These vehicles are all replacing vehicles with similar configuration that meet the City of Lawrence disposal criteria. Utilities Engineering is requesting to purchase a Ford Escape which is an addition to the fleet. It will be used by the newly staffed Project Engineer position. Fire/Medical is also requesting addition to the fleet, an Expedition, which will be used by the Shift Commander position. These vehicles are all budgeted in the 2006 budgeting process.
