INTRODUCED BY Scott Burnett, County Legislator
Body
WHEREAS, the Department of Corrections' existing firearms were purchased in 1995 and due to extensive wear, need to be replaced; and,
WHEREAS, the Director of Finance and Purchasing recommends the award of a contract for the purchase of new Glock firearms and accessories to GT Distributors as a sole source purchase; 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,
WHEREAS, the Director of Finance and Purchasing recommends that he not take competitive bids with regard to said firearms for the reason that GT Distributors is the designated factory distributor in this region for Glock firearms and is therefore a sole source; and,
WHEREAS, the Director further recommends that the existing firearms used by the Department of Corrections be declared unusable and be used as a trade-in on this purchase; and,
WHEREAS, a transfer is necessary to cover the cost of this purchase and other required firearms accessories, which will be purchased via an existing County term-and-supply contract; and,
