Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer
Subject: APTA Bus Purchase - Pre 2003 Budget Approval
Recommendation:
1. That Report CS 13-03 of the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer be
received and that:
Council provide pre budget approval for Ajax Pickering Transit Authority to
purchase three (3) replacement buses from Orion bus Industries, which the City
of Pickering will fund, to an upset limit of, $772,500;
funding in the City's 2003 Current Budget for the above acquisitions be as
follows:
Ontario Transit Renewal Reserve Fund $257,500
Transit Capital Reserve $515,000
4. the appropriate officials of the City of Pickering be authorized to give effect
thereto.
Executive Summary: Attached is a report to the APTA Board which outlines the
situation and includes a recommendation which requires pre budget approval from
the Councils of Ajax and Pickering. Ajax Council will be considering the above
recommendations at its meeting of February 10, 2003.
Financial Implications: The Ministry of Transportation has announced that APTA
will receive 2003 funding, in the amount of $650,000 through the Ontario Transit
Renewal Program, which may be applied to the purchase of these buses, on a one-
third basis.
It is expected that Pickering will receive, in 2003, from the Region, approximately
$1,500,000 from the Regional Go Transit funds.

By undertaking this purchase at this time and in this manner it is estimated that
APTA, and therefore the municipalities, will save approximately $70,000
including applicable taxes.
Background: The Ajax Pickering Transit Authority (APTA) identified, as part of
the 2003 capital budget, the purchase of three (3) replacement buses. APTA
currently has on order three (3) buses from Orion Bus Industries funded from the
2002 capital budget. There is an opportunity to "add on" the 2003 bus requirements
to the existing 2002 purchase order.
The timing and request for pre budget approval is predicated on delivery times and
the ability to maintain the purchase price of 2002.

REPORT TO THE BOARD
FROM: Ted Galinis
General Manager, Ajax Pickering Transit Authority
Date: February 6, 2003
REPORT NUMBER: APTA 09-03
SUBJECT: APTA Purchase of Three (3) Additional Orion V Buses With Lifts (2003 Budget Item)
RECOMMENDATION:
1. It is recommended that APTA Report 0%03 of the General Manager be received by the Board
and that:
2. the Board waive the APTA Purchasing Policy and approve increasing the existing Orion Bus
Industries Production Order 1221A from three (3) buses to six (6) buses: and that;
the Board authorize the General Manager to negotiate the purchase of three (3) Orion V buses
from Orion Bus Industries at a cost not to exceed the approved upset limit of $515,000 each: and
that;
4. this report and the Recommendation of the APTA Board be forwarded to the Councils of
Ajax and Pickering for pre budget approval: and that;
5. the appropriate officials of the APTA be given, upon approval of the purchase by the respective
Councils, the authority to give effect thereto.
ORIGIN:
APTA Report number APTA 09-02, dated May 27, 2002. - Orion Bus Industr/es Bus Procurement
AUTHORITY:
N/A
FINACIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Approval of the above Recommendations will permit APTA staff to acquire three (3) additional buses
(2003 budget) with concurrent manufacture and delivery with the 2002 order for a total of six (6) buses.
Concurrent manufacturing and delivery of the three (3) additional buses in less than one year is
unprecedented in the current manufacturing environment.

Page 2
Board Report 09-03
Subject: APTA Purchase of Three (3) Additional Orion V Buses With Lifts (2003 Budget Item)
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS (Continued):
The Ministry through the Ontario Transit Renewal Program (OTRP) has announced the APTA 2003
allocation of $650,000.00 for the purchase of replacement buses and major body overhauls. I have spoken
with Mr. Peter Coghill, Team Leader of the Inter-Regional Transit Office and he has no issues with
application of the OTRF funds for buses with accelerated delivery schedules. The Regional Transit Task
Force has recommended that Regional GO Transit funds flow through to the Municipalities as they did in
2002.
The purchase is included in the 2003 Capital Budget presentation. Adequate funds are available in the
APTA Capital Budget under account 2930, sub account 6157.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
It is APTA's intention to enter into a purchase agreement with Orion Bus Industries. Adding three (3)
more buses to our existing Production Order 1221A will allow for significantly expedited delivery of the
2003 purchase and will provide much needed replacement vehicles for the aging fleet. Concurrent
manufacturing of the six (6) buses will improve quality control issues at Orion, reduce maintenance costs
for an aging fleet, reduce training requirements and will help standardize our spare parts inventory. In
order to proceed with this purchase, we request the APTA Board to waive the tendering requirement of
the APTA Purchasing Policy in this instance.
We are in receipt of an e-mail from Orion Bus Industries quoting the per vehicle cost at $425,684.00
excluding taxes. The is the same price as the 2002 purchase. If the normal procurement process was
followed in this instance, the buses would be ordered in mid 2003 and delivery would occur in late 2004
or early 2005. The estimated per vehicle cost increase would be at least three to five percent. At five
percent, the additional cost per bus would increase by approximately $21,000.00 for a total of $63,000.00
for three buses before applicable taxes.
Unfortunately this opportunity has a very limited window for a decision because of the manufacturing
process. A decision was required ten working days from receipt of their letter. The original deadline of
iFebruary 14, 2003 has been extended to February 19, 2003. This timing will allow for pre budget
approval by both Municipal Councils on February 10 and 17 in Aj ax and Pickering respectively.
BACKGROUND:
Orion vehicles represent seventy five to eighty percent of our existing fleet. The Orion V's buses have a
proven performance record and our operators are familiar with them. Adequate funding is available from
repatriated GO Transit Regional Funds and the Ontario Transit Renewal Program.
This purchase would be a continuation of the tag on approach taken by York region and APTA last year.
A price validation, by APTA's General Manager, will be made to compare our costs to the York Region
Transit contract.

Orion advises that the price quoted in our letter dated January 31, 2003 did
not include extended warranties on the engine and transmission. Should Ajax
wish to have these extended warranties on the additional 3 buses then the
price per bus would be $425,684.00.
Orion also advises that in order to ship the 6 buses concurrently the new
delivery date will be July 25, 2003.
