On September 3, 2019, two members of the City’s Fleet Management team, Alex Mayorga and Thomas Flentie, joined a very small group of technicians who have earned the title of “World Class Technician.” The Auto Care Association and National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) created the “World Class” designation to recognize Master technicians who have completed 22 specific ASE certifications. Since its inception more than 30 years ago, the World Class Technician designation has been achieved by only .21% of automotive technicians in the United States. Alex and Thomas are setting the example for other technicians to follow and have solidified our City’s Fleet Management organization as a model for other fleets.

The City recently added four chargepoint+ charging stations to accommodate newly added electric vehicles. Unlike our existing charging stations, these networked chargers do the following: secure the charging stations from unauthorized access, manage and measure energy usage and costs, and generate environmenatl reports and analytics.

The City’s Fleet Management Division recently earned the Blue Seal of Excellence from the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). The Blue Seal recognizes organizations with at least 75% of technicians certified in each area of service and repairs performed. All of Fleet’s technicians are ASE certified.
