On April 4, 2005, <br />the City Council authorized the first renewal to the contract with <br />Galls/Uniform Center, a division of Long Beach Uniform Co., Inc., for a <br />one-year period for a total of 80 vests. Recently, safety concerns <br />have been raised regarding the long-term viability of vests made from <br />Zylon. Therefore, the vendor has agreed to exchange all Zylon vests for <br />vests made with Kevlar. Also, the Police Department requires an <br />additional 120 vests. Staff recommends amending the contract now to <br />address the immediate need, while initiating a new bidding process for <br />future body armor vests. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br />Funds are available in the Police Property & Facilities Operating <br />Materials & Supplies account (account no. 11-343-6391). <br /> <br />APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br /> <br />/~\ {v'tJ-- <br /> <br />Paul M.
