Body
BACKGROUND
This action does not encumber funds; the purpose of a service price agreement is to establish firm pricing for goods, for a specific term, which are ordered on an as needed basis according to annual budgetary appropriations. The estimated amount is intended as guidance rather than a cap on spending under the agreement, so that actual need combined with the amount budgeted will determine the amount spent under this agreement.
This item allows for the emergency purchase of tent rentals and establishes a service price agreement for the continued use of these tents for the next year or until the tents are no longer required in response to COVID-19. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic the City, in conjunction with federal agencies, established two testing sites for residents of the City. These testing sites required the use of large, event style, tents for personnel and equipment at the sites.
This service was procured utilizing emergency procurement guidelines which allow for the procurement of goods and services where routine bidding requirements cannot be followed. Emergency procurements are exempt from competitive bidding under the City Charter and State Law.
