<br />order. He noted studies have shown a very small payback in five (5) years and they intend to do
<br />further studies. Mr. Gilot stated that because of City policy and practice he spoke to Mayor
<br />Buttigieg to confirm the Mayor was okay with the award without the CNG. He stated he wanted
<br />to make sure the action was in line with the Mayor's policy. Mr. Gilot stated the Mayor
<br />confirmed he was okay with this but going forward, he wants a thorough review of CNG
<br />benefits. Ms. Dorau stated to clarify, the Police Department doesn't have any intention of adding
<br />the CNG later? She noted she was told differently and there was not enough information to
<br />proceed with the award. Mr. Eric Horvath, Public Works, stated it was his understanding there is
<br />going to be a review and a discussion in the next couple of weeks, but the award is to go forward
<br />and the addition of the CNG award is to be left open as an option if it is determined that should
<br />be added. Ms. Dorau questioned the legality of adding the option at a later date, noting it would
<br />be the same vendor and in fact, the other vendors did not bid the CNG. Attorney Dougherty
<br />stated he would need to research Indiana law and confirm that later. Mr. Mueller asked what the
<br />payback on the CNG is. Lieutenant Voros stated the current rate of savings is about $14,000 a
<br />year, but when you deduct the cost of installation of the CNG equipment, it takes approximately
<br />five (5) years to see a small payback. Mr. Gilot requested in the future, any studies on savings be
<br />included with the Memo to the Board for their review. Upon a motion by Mr. Gilot, seconded by
<br />Mr. Mueller and carried, the Board approved the award of the Police vehicles as recommended
<br />above.
