INTRODUCED BY Theresa Garza Ruiz, County Legislator
Body
WHEREAS, the County desires to purchase an upgraded operating system which controls the security system for the jail for use by the Department of Corrections; and,
WHEREAS, section 1040.1, Jackson County Code, eliminates the requirement for competitive bidding when the items to be purchased can be obtained from only one source; and,
WHEREAS, the Director of Finance and Purchasing recommends the purchase of the upgraded operating system to control the jail security system from Southern Steel, as the sole source provider of these items, as it is the only vendor capable of providing system upgrades to its own proprietary system; and,
WHEREAS, section 1063.00, Jackson County Code, 1984, requires that for any such purchase in excess of $25,000, the Director of Finance and Purchasing shall submit the purchase to the Legislature for approval; now therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED that an award be made as recommended by the Director of Finance and Purchasing, and that the Director be, and is hereby, authorized to execute for the County any documents necessary to the accomplishment of the award; and,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Director of Finance and Purchasing is authorized to make all payments, including final payments on the contract.
