NO. 08-036) <br />~~ <br />CITY MANAGER <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br />APPROVED <br />^ As Recommended <br />^ As Amended <br />^ Ordinance on 15' Reading <br />^ Ordinance on 2"d Reading <br />^ Implementing Resolution <br />^ Set Public Hearing For_ <br />CONTINUED TO <br />FILE NUMBER <br />Amend the contract with Curley Wholesale Electric for miscellaneous <br />electrical supplies by $25,000 for an annual amount not to exceed $50,000. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The City establishes an annual list consisting of vendors that provide <br />supplies and services that are required by agencies on a consistent basis. <br />Curley Wholesale Electric has been a provider of miscellaneous electrical <br />supplies, such as circuit breakers, fuses, relays and tools, to various <br />City agencies for the maintenance of City facilities. Curley Wholesale <br />Electric, a Santa Ana vendor, offers reliable service, competitive pricing, <br />and has consistently been the lowest responsive bidder on low cost items. <br />The increase in demand for electrical supplies and two special purchases of <br />motor lead wires for the Public Works Agency, when combined with previous <br />purchases in the current fiscal year, exceeds the $25,000 aggregate limit <br />and requires City Council approval. Staff requests approval to increase <br />the aggregate limit for Curley Wholesale Electric to provide uninterrupted <br />purchases of electrical supplies while staff solicits bids for future <br />electrical supply needs. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />Funds are available in the various departmental Operating Materials and <br />Supplies accounts (object code 6391). <br />c~CFrancisco Gutierrez <br />Executive Director <br />Finance & Management Services Agency <br />FG/WO/08-036.A.2 <br />221-1 <br />
