Explanation

Background: This ordinance authorizes the City Auditor to reduce three purchase orders (EL007348 with Sutphen Corporation by $21,693.32; EL007378 with Nortrax by $8,000; and EL007242 with Esec Corporation by $8,324.52) by the total amount of $38,017.84 with three service vendors. These purchase orders were originally established by Ordinance No. 0699-2007, passed by Council on June 25, 2007. This ordinance is necessary in order to cancel funds on these purchase orders that are not projected to be needed for services from the 2007 budget. The funds will then be reallocated to other service vendors.

Emergency action is requested in order to reduce three purchase orders by $38,017.84, established by Ordinance No. 0699-2007, thereby freeing up this money for reallocation to other services for the Fleet Management Division.

Fiscal Impact: This ordinance does not increase expenditures.
