TOWING SERVICES

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-16 · resolution

Resolution authorizing additional expenditure authority of $1,901,390.00 for a total modified contract amount of $16,558,190.00 for Contract No. FB-00446, Towing Services, for the Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) and the People and Internal Operations Department (PIOD). The contract expires on March 31, 2027. The additional allocation is for DTPW ($1,247,500) and PIOD ($653,890). DTPW's need is driven by increased towing requests, fleet expansion including 100 articulated electric buses at the South Dade Transit Operations Center (SDTOC) opening November 2026, and higher per-tow costs for 60-foot buses. PIOD's need is due to a 16% average annual increase in tows and a 29% increase in per-tow prices since 2022. The contract includes four groups: Group A (All County Departments except DTPW Buses Only and RER Disposals), Group B (DTPW Buses Only), Group C (RER Only for North and South Zones), and Group D (Prequalification Pool to Quote Specialized Tows). The item was adopted by the Board of County Commissioners on 6/16/2026. The document does not state a specific project site, address, parcel, acreage, or zoning change.
