Item to be presented y:
CONSENT CALENDAR ANDREA DAROCA
DATE: July 9, 1991
SUBJECT: Advisement on the purchase of Corporate Yard furnishings.
DEPARTMENT: Finance/General Services
ADVISEMENT
In order to facilitate a smooth and successful transition from City Hall to the
Corporate Yard, the' City Staff needed to use the emergency purchase section,
pursuant to the City Of Santa Clarita's Municipal Code 3.12.270; section 1,
subsection 7, to acquire furniture from T.W. McAllister and Associates Inc. Due
to numerous moving functions and orders, end of the year fiscal duties, and
pending space allocation from the City Engineer, resulting time constraints have
inhibited normal purchase requisition procedures.
The time period it conventionally takes to go through the formal bid process and
receive delivery is twelve weeks; however, staff has acquired all necessary
amenities within a three week period. The grand total for all
purchase/equipment is $41,908.59, and is budgeted in account number
01-4605-402.
If the above purchase had not been executed when it was required, ramifications
not within the best interest of the entire City Hall could have resulted.
RECOMMENDATION
That City Council confirm staff's requisition of funding for the City.Yard as an
emergency purchase from funds budgeted in account number 01-4605-402.
