City Council Report
Date: September 28, 2026
To: City Council
Through: Michael Kennington, Deputy City Manager/Chief Financial Officer
From: Edward Quedens, Business Services Director
Kristy Garcia, Procurement Administrator
Subject: Use of a Cooperative Contract for the Purchase of One Sewer Line Inspection
Truck (Addition) for the Fleet Services and Water Resources Departments
(Citywide)
Recommendation
Council is requested to approve the award as recommended.
The Fleet Services and Water Resources Departments and Procurement Services
recommend authorizing the purchase using the Sourcewell cooperative contract with
Dawson Infrastructure Solutions, LLC (a Mesa business) in an amount not to exceed
$701,800, based on estimated requirements.
Background / Discussion
This contract will provide the Water Resources Department with an additional sewer line
inspection truck to support increased workload demands and maintain continuity of
operations when another truck is unavailable due to scheduled maintenance or repairs.
This specialized vehicle is equipped with a remotely operated camera system that allows
staff to inspect sewer lines, assess pipe conditions, and identify potential issues beneath
City streets.
The Sourcewell cooperative contract has been competitively bid and meets the City’s
procurement requirements. Utilizing the Sourcewell contract allows the City to receive
competitive rates based on a formally solicited agreement. The City believes the pricing is
fair and reasonable and soliciting for this product would not result in the City receiving more
favorable pricing or terms.
