RE: Master Lease Agreement with Suntrust Leasing &
Resolution No. 2001-01, Lease-Purchase of New City Vehicles and Heavy
Equipment FY 00/01
A new master lease is required with Suntrust Bank due to their merging with Suntrust Leasing
Corporation, Baltimore, Maryland, along with new state laws and procedures. Future lease-
purchases will be effected through a schedule attachment to the Master Lease-Purchase
Agreement.
The budget for Fiscal Year 00/01 included the lease-purchase of(l 1) eleven new vehicles for the
Police Department, (4) four new city vehicles, and (3) three pieces of heavy equipment, as per
the attached listing. A resolution for bank-qualified tax-exempt financing is also required.
The best pricing for the vehicles was found through the Sheriffs Office & Local Governmental
Agencies of the State of Florida Cooperative Bid #00-08-0905. The heavy equipment bids have
been approved at prior City Commission meetings, except for the Backhoe, which is on the
2/7/01 agenda. The total cost for the vehicles is $321,277 and the total cost for the heavy
equipment is $286,981. The total lease-purchase amount is $608,258.
Staff contacted Suntrust Leasing Corporation, Ford Motor Credit Company, and Commercial &
Municipal Capital for bank qualified financing. Based upon a lease term of(3) three years for
the police vehicles: Suntrust Leasing Corporation's interest rate is 4.475%, Ford Motor Credit's
interest rate is 6.35% and CMC did not respond. Based upon a lease term of(4) four years for the
other city vehicles: Suntrust Leasing Corporation's interest rate is 4.495%, Ford Motor Credit's
interest rate is 6.55%, and CMC did not respond. Therefore, it was determined that Suntrust
Leasing Corporation offered the best interest rate at 4.489% combined annual interest rate.
