Intro
RESOLUTION #17618, June 27, 2011
INTRODUCED BY Dan Tarwater, County Legislator
Body
WHEREAS, in 2007 the COMBAT Review Committee appointed by the County Executive recommended the development of a consistent process for eligibility, compliance, monitoring, and evaluation of individual programs receiving COMBAT funds; and,
WHEREAS, by Resolution 16711, dated September 22, 2008, and Resolution 17234, dated April 5, 2010, the legislature did authorize the award of contracts to First Call Alcohol/Drug Prevention & Recovery, formerly known as the National Council On Alcoholism and Drug Dependence, to increase capacity to track drug treatment data, as a sole source purchase; and,
WHEREAS, the Jackson County Drug Commission and COMBAT administration recommend the enhanced use of a data tracking software program to be used among COMBAT funded substance abuse treatment programs to track and evaluate the effectiveness of treatment services in keeping with the mission and goals of the Drug Commission; and,
WHEREAS, section 1030.1, Jackson County Code, 1984, eliminates the requirement for competitive bidding when items to be purchased can be obtained from only one source and requires notification of and approval by the Legislature on such sole source purchases exceeding $25,000.00; and,
WHEREAS, the Director of Finance and Purchasing recommends a follow-up contract with First Call Alcohol/Drug Prevention & Recovery for the maintenance, continuation, and enhancement of a data tracking software program, for use by COMBAT, as a sole source, because First Call has unique familiarity with the program and the County's needs; now therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the County Legislature of Jackson County, Missouri, that award be made as recommended by the Director of Finance and Purchasing, and that the County Executive be, and is hereby, authorized to execute for the County any documents necessary to the accomplishment of the award in a form to be approved by the County Counselor; and,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Director of Finance and Purchasing is authorized to make all payments, including final payment on contract.
