Background: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to issue purchase orders, on behalf of the Fleet Management Division, with Enterprise Holdings Inc. for the rental of vehicles on behalf of City Departments, through a State of Ohio cooperative contract.
Ordinance #582-87 authorized City agencies to participate in Ohio Department of Administrative Services (DAS) cooperative contracts. The State of Ohio cooperative contract RS902820 with Enterprise Holdings, Inc. expires 9/15/2023.
