INTRODUCED BY Terry Young, County Legislator
Body
WHEREAS, Section 1040.1 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,
WHEREAS, Section 1063.00 of the Code requires notification of and approval by the Legislature on such sole source purchases exceeding $5,000.00; and,
WHEREAS, the Purchasing Director recommends the award of a contract for the furnishing of maintenance and parts for the Corrections Department's electronic security system to Southern Steel of San Antonio, TX; and,
