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 a contract for the purchase of mobile radar units for use by the Sheriff's Department to Kustom Signals of Lenexa, Kansas as the unit which was evaluated as the best option in a Sheriff's Department field test; and,
