Explanation

BACKGROUND:  Ordinance Number 1001-2009 passed by City Council on July 27, 2009, authorized the Finance and Management Director to procure a Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer in the amount of $97,139.30 from the Law Enforcement Seizure fund for use by the Police Crime Lab.  However, Section 3 of the ordinance mistakenly authorized an expenditure of $91,139.30 instead of the correct amount of $97,139.30.   This ordinance corrects this mistake by amending Section 3. as follows:  "That the expenditure of $91,139.30...", must be changed to read, "That the expenditure of $97,139.30...".

Bid Information:  N/A

Contract Compliance:  N/A

Emergency Designation:  Emergency legislation is requested so that a purchase order may be issued based upon the original ordinance authorization.

Fiscal Impact:  The effect of this amendment change noted in the BACKGROUND section will require the encumbering of an additional $6,000.00 from the Law Enforcement Seizure fund for the purchase of the Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer.  There are sufficient funds in the Law Enforcement Seizure fund to accommodate this additional encumbrance.
