The purpose of this legislation is to authorize the Director of Finance and Management to establish purchase orders for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage to obtain Heating Oil in accordance with a cooperative purchasing contract bid by the State of Ohio, GDC027E, Contract Number RS908906
This contract was bid specifically to be a cooperative contract for use by other governmental agencies in accordance with Chapter 1545 of the Ohio Revised Code (ORC). The State of Ohio contract expires April 30, 2009. The funding on this ordinance is for expenses that will occur in the winter months of 2006-2007.
