Explanation
Background: This legislation authorizes the Public Service Director to reassign a service contract from Computran Systems Corporation to Computran Systems Engineering, L.L.C. This contract under City Purchase Order Number ED024678 is for software support services for the City's Computerized Traffic Signal System.
