1 VI-C-2 JULY 7, 2014 MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE DATE: July 7, 2014 RE: Agreement with Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation for Industrial Equipment/Tool Rental Attached hereto for your consideration is an Agreement with Hertz Rental Corporation (Hertz) for the rental of industrial equipment/tools to be used by the City s Water Distribution Division. The terms, conditions and pricing associated with this Agreement are made pursuant to State of Florida Contract ACS No ACS for Industrial Equipment and Tool Rental, in addition to the supplemental terms contained in the Addendum to the State Contract between the City and Hertz. The Water Division is seeking to utilize a negotiated Agreement with Hertz in an effort to guarantee pricing rather than obtain quotes for each needed rental and minimize delays in obtaining equipment in emergency situations. In addition, rental of equipment/tools represents a more cost effective approach than purchasing certain equipment since the price to purchase new equipment/tools that are only used occasionally is a significant expense. The term of this Agreement, effective July 7, 2014, subject to approval by the City Commission, shall be for a period of three (3) years, with one (1) additional two (2) year period following expiration of the initial term upon mutual written agreement of the parties. The total anticipated annual cost for equipment/tool rental is $25, based on previous yearly expenditures. However, total cost will vary depending on what type and how often a type of equipment is needed. It is recommended that the appropriate City officials be authorized to execute this Agreement with Hertz for industrial equipment/tool rental. RS attachment

The terms, conditions and pricing associated with this Agreement are made pursuant to State of Florida Contract ACS No.
