RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
WAIVING THE BIDDING PROCEDURE
AND AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASING AGENT TO EXECUTE
A PURCHASE ORDER WITH VEROTEK FOR THE PURCHASE OF
A COMPUTER SERVER AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT
WHEREAS, the Purchasing Agent of the City of National City, did conduct research
regarding available contracts for the purchase of a computer server and associated equipment,
with the intention of piggybacking a master contract to ensure the best price for the City; and
WHEREAS, the Purchasing Agent determined that Verotek could offer special pricing
due to the fact that they currently hold a contract with the City for maintenance of the City's
network; and the price offered by VEROTEK was less than pricing available from contracts
available through the State of California, City of San Diego, the Federal Government, and the
manufacturer of the equipment; and
WHEREAS, Section 2.60.220 of the Municipal Code authorizes dispensing with the
bidding procedure when the City Council determines that it is in the City's best interest to do so,
and research indicates that special circumstances exist to support this purchase, and it is
therefore recommended that the purchase be made without complying with the competitive
bidding procedure set forth in the Municipal Code; and
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
National City that the Council finds and determines that it is in the City's best interest to purchase
the server, from VEROTEK without complying with the competitive bidding procedure.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of National City, that the
Purchasing Agent is hereby authorized to execute on behalf of the City, a Purchase Order
between VEROTEK and the City of National City to effect this purchase.
PASSED and ADOPTED this 22nd day of September 1998.
