Body
WHEREAS, section 1030.1 of the 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, AT&T has been providing Plexar II services to the Public Works Department's Vehicle Service Center for the past six years; and,
 
WHEREAS, the Director of Finance and Purchasing now recommends that the County renew the agreement with AT&T to provide Plexar II telephone services for an additional one-year term; and,
 
WHEREAS, the Renewal Agreement provides for costs estimated at $31,000.00 for these services as follows:
