Hose for the period January 1, 2000 through December 31,’ 2000, with the option to

ITEM EXPLANATION
The City of Carlsbad has been the lead agency in the cooperative bids for fire hose for
several years. In April of 1999 a contract was awarded for forestry fire hose for one year
with the option to renew for three additional one year periods. However, service from our
contractor was unacceptable and the contract was terminated at the end of October.
Prior to sending out the bid, a questionnaire was distributed to the members of the San
Diego County Fire Equipment Committee. Based on their responses, an estimated
quantity of 31,000 feet of fire hose will be purchased from this bid annually, resulting in
purchases in excess of $29,000 each year. Each individual public agency will place their
respective order(s) with the selected vendor.
In accordance with Section 3.28.120 of the Municipal Code, Notice to Bidders was
published and Requests for Bid were sent to four vendors. Two responses were
opened, witnessed and recorded on November 24, 1999. Bid results are as follows:
1" x 100' 1 l/z"x 100'
KMP Fire 78.78 99.09
Wildfire Pacific Equipment 87.53 110.10
The lowest, responsible bidder submitting a responsive bid was KMP Fire. The vendor
accepted the Public Agency Clause allowing any public agency in the State of California
to participate in this award during the contract period.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City of Carlsbad’s Fire Department anticipates spending approximately $2000 for
these types of fire hose this fiscal year. These funds are available in the Fire
Department’s Fire Hose and Appliances Account.
