Public Works & Transportation Committee Meeting - 9/8/2026

The City of Oxnard Public Works & Transportation Committee convened on September 8, 2026, to discuss procurement and contract matters related to public works operations. The committee approved a purchase order with Quinn Company for up to $305,376.45 to acquire two Caterpillar 260 skid steer loaders and one CAT forklift for the Environmental Resources Division. These vehicles are essential for material handling at the city's material recovery facility, replacing units currently out of service. The purchase utilized a cooperative purchasing agreement, yielding a 20% discount valued at approximately $72,296. Additionally, the committee recommended approval of a five-year agreement with Blackpoint Group Construction and Management, Inc. for storm channel cleaning services covering about 10 miles of the city's 50 miles of open storm channels. This contract supplements city staff efforts to maintain storm drainage capacity. Both items were approved unanimously by the committee and will be forwarded to the city council for final authorization.
