AN ORDINANCE WAIVING THE REQUIREMENTS OF COMPETITIVE BIDDING IN
REGARD TO CONTRACTING FOR THE PURCHASE OF UNIFORMS FOR THE POLICE
AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS, CITY OF JACKSONVILLE; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE,
ARKANSAS, THAT:
Section 1: Pursuant to Arkansas Statutes Annotated Section
19-4425, we hereby waive the requirements of competitive bidding
in regard to the purchase of uniforms for the police and Fire
Departments.
Section 2: We hereby state that the requirements of compe-
titive bidding in this instance would not be feasible or practical
in that the company who was original1y the low bidder, Farrios,
Inc., has failed to perform the contract satisfactorily causing
said contract to be cancelled. That the next low bidder for
these uniforms is Schneider's of North Little Rock, Arkansas.
They have submitted quotes and under these circumstances competi-
tive bidding would be fruitless and nonproductive and costly to
the City.
Section 3: We hereby authorize the City of Jacksonville's
Police and Fire Departments to contract with Schneider's of North
Little Rock, Arkansas, pursuant to the terms as set out in the
attached QUOTATION dated February 1, 1984 for the balance of 1984.
Section 4: That all ordinances or parts of ordinances in
conflict herewith are hereby repealed to the extent of any such
conflict.
APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 2nd
EFFECTIVE DATE: MARCH 2,1984.
DAY OF FEBRUARY, 1984.
