A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF AZUSA APPROVING AN EMERGENCY
AMBULANCE SERVICE AGREEMENT WITH CRIPPENS
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA DOES HEREBY
RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council of the City of Azusa does
hereby find, determine and declare that:
A. The City has submitted requests for proposals
for ambulance service to numerous firms within
the San Gabriel Valley and has received four responses.
The staff diligently reviewed each proposal and
recommended to the Council that the proposal from
Crippensbe accepted based on the cost to the city
and the quality of service which would be provided
under its proposal.
B. Although the City is not required to provide
ambulance service to its residents, it is nonethe-
less authorized to exercise its discretion to
provide such service and to determine the quality
and cost of such service.
C. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.68.010
of the Azusa Municipal Code, the City Council
hereby dispenses with such bidding and other
procedures required by Chapters 2.64 and 2.68
of the Azusa Municipal Code and finds that it
would be impracticable, useless or uneconomical
to follow such procedures in the awarding of the
ambulance service agreement and that the public
welfare would be promoted by dispensing with them
in that the providing of the ambulance services
involves many difficult decisions regarding level
of service, quality of service and not just simply
which bid may come in the lowest.
D. The adoption of the proposed agreement for
emergency ambulance services is within the best
interests of the City of Azusa and its residents
and helps to preserve the health, safety and
general welfare of persons within the City.
SECTION 2. The City Council of the City of Azusa
hereby approves that certain agreement entitled "Agreement for
Emergency Ambulance Services" between the City and Crippens and
authorizes the Mayor to execute said agreement on behalf of
the City in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit "A."

of this resolution.
