Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
The Division of Planning and Operations is responsible for traffic control throughout the City to promote vehicular safety and expedite traffic flow. The Purchasing Office has solicited formal competitive bids for the purchase of Longitudinal Channelizers in the process of establishing universal term contracts (UTCs). This commodity is used to separate traffic into lanes.

This ordinance authorizes the expenditure of monies for these longitudinal channelizers per the terms and conditions of this existing universal term contract. The total cost of the commodities needed is $50,000.00.

Searches in the Excluded Party List System (Federal) and the Findings for Recovery list (State) produced no findings against Quick Kurb Inc.

2. CONTRACT COMPLIANCE
Qwick Kurb, Inc's contract compliance is 593340636 and expires: 2/1/2013

3. FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding for these commodities is budgeted within the 2011 Capital Improvement Budget. This expense can be accommodated by appropriating and transferring funds needed in the amount of $50,000.00 from the Special Income Tax Fund. Bonds have yet to be sold for this expense, necessitating a certification of $100,000.00 against the Special Income Tax Fund. Upon sale of bonds, this will be reimbursed.

4. EMERGENCY DESIGNATION
Emergency action is requested to procure the Longitudinal Channelizer commodities as soon as possible to provide sufficient supply to meet the Division's schedules at the earliest possible time for the safety of the travelling public.
