Explanation
BACKGROUND: This Ordinance authorizes the Finance Director the Department of Technology, for the Department of Technology, on behalf of the Transportation Division, to establish a purchase order for replacement computers from a pre-established UTC (FL001696 expiration 03-31-2006), with Resource One.

This purchase will eliminate any computer-related performance problems and will allow Transportation to continue its efforts.
