Explanation

BACKGROUND:

Need: The City of Columbus, Ohio and FOP Lodge No. 9, as well as AFSCME Local 1632, have collective bargaining agreements which require the City to provide uniforms to all bargaining unit members at no cost to the employee. This ordinance will enable the division to contract for uniforms for sixty recruits that are to be hired in December 2003.

Bid Information: The Purchasing Office has set up an universal term contract FL001055 for the purchase of uniforms. This UTC was made in response of bid # SA000125DRM.

Contract Compliance No.: 31-1261664

Emergency Designation: Emergency legislation is requested so funds can be made available in order to set up the contract to purchase the needed uniforms for the recruits.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds were originally budgeted in object level 10 for the purchase of uniforms for the new recruits. Due to cuts in the original uniform contract and cost savings in purchasing ammunition, funds are available in object level 02 for the purchase of these uniforms
