BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to issue a purchase order for turnout gear for the Division of Fire from the existing Universal Term Contract established by the Purchasing Office with Morning Pride Manufacturing, LLC.

The Division of Fire budgeted $460,000.00 for turnout gear, boots, gloves, and helmets for existing sworn personnel and $331,360.00 in uniforms/turnout gear for two recruit classes. Year to date $479,594.00 has been encumbered and/or speant thus far in 2011 for turnout gear purchases. This ordinance also transfers $231,360.00 from the recruit uniform/turnout gear set aside to supplement the remaining need of funding in Materials and Supplies. The Fire Division expended $489,505.00 in 2010 and $275,418.00 in 2009 for turnout gear and related items.
