The City of Fort Collins will be ordering six (6) 60' articulated buses from North American Bus
Industries (NABI) under bid F2969. I am writing to request that you assign three additional
options in Year Three of the Santa Monica/NABI purchase agreement to the City of Fort Collins
for our transit project.
At this point I'm not certain we will need the options, but I'd like to have them assigned to us in
case we find that we have to expand our articulated bus fleet as the transit project goes on line.
If we do not need the options, we will release them back to Santa Monica or, if appropriate,
transfer them to another entity.
We very much appreciate your assistance and consideration in this matter. Call me with any
questions: 970-221-6776.
Sincerely,
�Jmes R. Hume, Senior Buyer
