Councilmember Herrera Spencer stated that she is concerned about the location of Freeway Toyota; inquired whether there are local Toyota companies which can provide vehicles. The City Manager responded Freeway Toyota is the State bid winner for the vehicle type. The Fleet Supervisor stated the contracts are State contracts, specifically California Multiple Award Schedule (CMAS), which is conducted by the Department of General Services (DGS); the companies and dealerships are based in California; staff did not reach out to local Toyota businesses; the State contract moves a high volume of vehicles which have a better price reduction from the manufacturer. Councilmember Herrera Spencer noted the vehicles are Toyotas; inquired whether another local vendor would be able to sell the vehicles at the rate of roughly $31,000 per vehicle. The Fleet supervisor responded most local dealerships are focused on selling vehicles to the general public versus operating fleet sales; fleet operation sales make substantially less on individual vehicle; the vendor is able to sell many vehicle units and is therefore able to get a reduced price from Toyota; staff can reach out to a local Regular Meeting Alameda City Council September 7, 2021 8 | CityCouncil/2021-09-07.pdf |
