Lss2/7/12 <br />RESOLUTION NO. 2012-XXX <br />A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF <br />SANTA ANA SETTING A LOCAL PREFERENCE LEVEL IN <br />THE PURCHASE OF GOODS, SUPPLIES, LABOR, <br />EQUIPMENT AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES <br />BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS <br />FOLLOWS: <br />Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines <br />and declares as follows: <br />A. Section 2-803.1 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (Code), adopted by <br />Ordinance NS - XXXX, provides that the City Council may set by resolution <br />the level of preference to be provided to local businesses in the procurement <br />of goods, supplies, labor and equipment. <br />B. Section 2-808 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (Code), adopted by <br />Ordinance NS - XXXX, provides that the City Council may set by resolution <br />the level of preference to be provided to local businesses in the procurement <br />of services. <br />C. The City Council fines that as to the local preference in procurement: <br />An analysis of recent procurements indicates that if a preference of seven <br />percent (7%) were extended to local business, and a preference of four <br />percent (4%) were extended to Orange County business, approximately <br />twenty-five percent (25%) of Santa Ana contracts would be awarded to <br />local business or Orange County business; and <br />2. The estimated fiscal impact of extending a local preference is $XXX; and <br />3. A seven percent preference for local business assists in balancing the <br />cost to the local business associated with doing business in the City, <br />including business license tax, sales tax and property tax; and <br />4. Because the city lies in the center of Orange County, extending a <br />preference to Orange County businesses will provide benefit to the <br />regional economy, including the City. <br />Resolution No. 2012-XXX <br />75B-23 Page 1 of 2
