Milton approves contract for auto repair services

The Milton City Council recently awarded a contract to Premier Collision Center to provide automobile body repair services to the city’s vehicle fleet.

This 3-year contract will be rebid every three years to ensure competitive pricing and best value for the city. Premiere Collision Center, 4468 Abbotts Bridge Road, has been providing these services for the past three years and was the only response to a request for proposals for this new contract.

The city agrees to pay Premiere pre-negotiated prices for the work. The total amount paid by the city and its insurer cannot, in any case, exceed $83,333.33 annually.

The city currently has more than 70 vehicles in their fleet, the majority of which are assigned to the police department.
