ra
VIA: RICK COLE, CITY MANAGER
DATE: APRIL 29, 2003
SUBJECT: AMENDMENT AND INCREASE OF $3,000.00 TO THE BLANKET
PURCHASE ORDER FOR POLICE DEPARTMENT VERIZON
WIRELESS SERVICE FOR A NEW TOTAL OF $15,500
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended City Council approve an increase of $3,000.00 in Blanket
Purchase Order No. 310898 with Verizon Wireless for a new total of $15,500.
BACKGROUND
Purchase Order No. 310898 is issued for Police Department wireless telephone
service through Verizon Wireless. The current blanket purchase order amount of
$12,500.00 will be exceeded, primarily due to unanticipated Detective Bureau
operations requiring many hours of surveillance work and heavy cellular
telephone use. Two major operations were conducted during the fiscal year,
focusing on both gang and hate crime related issues. The tremendous amount
of field surveillance time involved in these operations required detectives to
utilize their cellular phones in excess of the budgeted amount.
FISCAL IMPACT
There are sufficient funds available in accounts #10-20-310-000-6915 and
#28-20-310-042-6915 to cover these costs.
