MediumMedium significance — notable action worth trackingThe only vendor agreement on the agenda was a Field Test Agreement with Chevron Oronite Company, LLC for testing oils on City buses, running through September 1, 2029. Firms in fleet lubricants and bus maintenance services should note this is a multi-year testing arrangement that, if authorized, would occupy that testing role for roughly three years.

MediumMedium significance — notable action worth trackingThe Chevron Oronite Company, LLC field test resolution is the story to pursue: a private oil company would test products on public transit buses through September 2029 under an agreement the City Manager would be authorized to sign, with amendment authority delegated as well. Open questions include what the City pays or receives, how test results may be used, and whether the fleet faces any operational risk.
