Body

SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:

The Total Station Survey Robotic System purchased in 2012 needs to be replaced since it can no longer be repaired. The Trimble R12 has the ability to track three times the satellites as the current survey system along with the ability to connect to satellites in dense and wooded areas, which will allow surveys to be completed expediently, and with more accuracy.  This system is available through Precision Laser and Instrument, Inc., which is a proprietary seller of Trimble products in the Toledo area.  This legislation will authorize the replacement of the obsolete equipment.

Summary

NOW, THEREFORE, Be it ordained by the Council of the City of Toledo:

 

                     SECTION 1.  That the mayor is authorized to enter into an agreement with Precision Laser & Instrument, Inc. for the purchase of one (1) Trimble R12 Survey System upon such terms and conditions as the mayor may deem requisite and proper, subject to approval by the Department of Law and the Director of Public Utilities.

 

                     SECTION 2.  That this Council finds it in the best interest of the City to waive the competitive procurement provisions of TMC Chapter 187 for the reason that the Trimble R12 Survey System has exclusive compatibility with existing software programs being used by the city and Precision Laser & Instrument, Inc. is the sole source provider for the Trimble R12 system.

 

                     SECTION 3.  That an amount not to exceed $15,050 is authorized for expenditure from the Capital Improvement Fund, Account Code 5040-35000-8C35000PROSUP, for the purchase of one (1) Trimble R12 Survey System.

                     SECTION 6.  That an amount not to exceed $1,215 is authorized for expenditure from the Sewer Operating Fund, Account Code 6070-35000-4000508STDSTD, for the purchase of one (1) Trimble R12 System.

SECTION 8.  That the disappropriation of any remaining budget to fund balance is authorized at project closeout.

 

                     SECTION 9.  That this ordinance is declared to be an emergency measure and shall take effect and be in force from and after its passage. The reason for the emergency lies in the fact that this ordinance is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety and property, and for the further reason that this ordinance must be immediately effective in order to permit the expedient purchase of one (1) Trimble R12 Survey Systems.
