Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
The U.S. Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation has funds available to law enforcement agencies for the purpose of joint task force operations. The Toledo Police Department will utilize the Ohio Building space for FBI joint task force operations. The value of the funding available to the Toledo Police Department is $162,000 which will be used to reimburse the general fund for the cost of this lease. The funds will cover the entire amount of the lease agreement with the Ohio Building Company LLC for a three-year period. The additional amount of $33,355 will also be provided by The U.S. Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation for reimbursement of the cost of office furniture.
The reason for waiving competitive bidding lies in the fact that the FBI offices are currently located in the Ohio Building. In addition, the furniture purchase was negotiated and arranged by the FBI since they are reimbursing the City of Toledo for its full cost. There are no matching requirements.
