The vendors have performed satisfactorily during the <br /> past contract period and have agreed to renew the contract without an <br /> increase in pricing. Staff recommends the first renewal of the contract. <br /> The annual amount is based upon past usage and staff's projection for the <br /> next year. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> Funds are available in the Fire Department Uniforms & Tools account (no. <br /> 01115360 63100) for $100,000 and various departmental Miscellaneous Office <br /> Expenses account (no. 63001) for $20,000. <br /> APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br /> Marc Martin ~ Francisco Gutierrez <br /> Fire Chief 22A_~Executive Director <br /> Finance & Mgmt Services Agency <br /> ..,,R <br /> <br />
