AN ORDINANCE WAIVING THE REQUIREMENTS OF COMPETITIVE BIDDING IN
REGARD TO CONTRACTING FOR THE PURCHASE OF AN INTOXILYZER 4011-AS
FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, 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 an Intoxilyzer 4011-AS for the Police
Department.
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 has submitted a bid is the sole distributor
of this type machine in the area. The officers were trained on
this machine, at great expense to the city, and a different machine
would require new training at great expense to the city. Under
these circumstances competitive bidding would be fruitless and
nonproductive and costly to the City.
Section 3: We hereby authorize the City of Jacksonville's
Police Department to contract with CMI, Inc., a subsidiary of
Federal Signal Corporation at the cost of $3,800.00.
Section 4: That all ordinances or parts of ordinances in
conflict herewith are hereby repealed to the extent of any such
conflict.
