A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
AZUSA WAIVING FORMAL SEALED BIDDING AND
AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASING OFFICER TO ISSUE A
PURCHASE ORDER TO J.H. BAXTER OF SAN MATEO,
CALIFORNIA, FOR 14 WOODEN POLES IN SIX DIFFERENT
LENGTHS FOR THE WAREHOUSE INVENTORY
WHEREAS, Section 2.68.020 of the Azusa Municipal Code requires City purchases over
the amount of $5,000 to be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder after notice, and
WHEREAS, Section 2.68.010 of the Azusa Municipal Code allows the City Council to
waive formal sealed bidding procedures upon finding that the public welfare would be promoted
by dispensing with them, and
WHEREAS, the City has an urgent need to purchase one 70 foot pole for upcoming project,
and
WHEREAS, by soliciting written quotes from its list of known suppliers, and by accepting
the most favorable quotation following this approach, the City will have clearly complied with the
intent of Section 2.68.010 of the Azusa Municipal Code, even though formal "sealed" bids have not
been solicited.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA DOES
HEREBY FIND AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That formal "sealed" bids for the purchase of 14 wooden poles would be
impracticable, useless and uneconomical and that the public welfare would be
promoted by dispensing with them, and
Section 2. That the formal "sealed" bidding process is waived, and
Section 3. That the City Council confirms the action of the Purchasing Officer in
obtaining written quotations from his list of known suppliers, and
Section 4. That the City Council authorizes the Purchasing Officer to accept the quotation
that is the most favorable to the City.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 1st day of April, 1996.
