Board approves $213,715.85 purchase of Ford F-550 service truck for public utilities
Summary
Danbury City’s Board of Awards approved a purchase order of $213,715.85 for a Ford F-550 Super Cab service truck for the public utilities department, to be procured from Monaco & Sons Motor Sales under a Connecticut state contract.
The Danbury City Board of Awards on Oct. 22 authorized the purchase of a Ford F-550 Super Cab service truck with a service body for the public utilities department at a recorded total cost of $213,715.85. The purchase requisition named Monaco & Sons Motor Sales and cited a current Connecticut state contract as the procurement vehicle.
A board member (recorded as speaker S2) moved to award the purchase order to Monaco & Sons Motor Sales under the state contract; the motion was seconded (the transcript references "Ms. Conti" as second). The board voted and the motion carried unanimously.
The purchasing agent, Jake Volpe, read the requisition into the record and stated the total recorded cost. The meeting record captures votes in favor from an attorney (the transcript alternately spells the name as "Cruz" while the earlier introduction listed counsel as Caitlin Bruce) and from Kent Higgins; the board recorded the motion as carrying unanimously.
The transcript gives no additional detail on delivery timelines, funding line items, or vehicle specifications beyond the model and the total cost; department staff will complete the purchase order and contract execution under the state contract.
