Explanation
BACKGROUND: Ordinance 2377-2012, passed November 19, 2012, authorized the establishment of purchase orders with Public Safety Corporation and Pomeroy IT Solutions to purchase an upgrade to the Division of Support Services- License Section's false alarm application. The ordinance inadvertently referenced an incorrect vendor (Pomeroy IT Solutions) and Universal Term Contract Number (FL004506). Instead, the legislation should have referenced ONX USA, LLC (Contract Compliance No. 27-1445264 expires 10-11-2013) and Universal Term Contract Number FL005254. This amendment is to properly reference the vendor as ONX USA, LLC so that the purchase order can be established. All other aspects of ordinance 2377-2012 remain the same.
EMERGENCY; Emergency designation is requested in order to upgrade the current false alarm application to allow the License Section to begin processing and accepting online payment immediately.
