The City wants to lock in two contracts — with Southern Tire Mart and Youngblood Automotive & Tire — to handle tire repair and replacement for Austin's fleet of city vehicles and equipment. Keeping everything from fire trucks to maintenance rigs rolling on safe tires is the kind of unglamorous-but-essential work that keeps city services running. The deals run an initial two years with three possible one-year extensions, for a total not to exceed $13,490,270, with $1,103,356 available now in the Fleet Mobility Services budget and the rest contingent on future funding.
