Explanation

BACKGROUND:
This ordinance authorizes the Finance and Management Director to establish a purchase order for the Department of Development for the purchase of furniture for the Economic Development Division.

Bids were solicited under SA002830. Responsive bids received were as follows:

Continental Office $112,062.68
Loth, Inc. $116.298.54
McNerney & Son $117,487.84
OM Workspace $120,472.11
Osterman Cron $111,916.00
Dupler Office $129,081.36

King Business Interiors bid was determined to be unresponsive.

It is the recommendation of the Department of Development to award the bid to Continental Office, who is the lowest bid once local vendor preference is given. Because the department has reduced the quantity of items, the amount of the award to Continental is $110,108.23.

EMERGENCY DESIGNATION:
The Department of Development requests that this ordinance pass as an emergency measure so that the delivery of furniture will correspond with the move date to the Lazarus Building.

The funding associated with this ordinance will come from the General Fund ($15,098.23) and the General Permanent Improvement Fund ($95,010). Funds will need to be transferred within the General Fund, Economic Development Division to provide adequate funding for this purchase.
