STAFF RESOURCE PERSON:
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
David Kautz
Adopt the resolution which gives the City the option to participate
with the State of Texas in the cooperative bidding and purchasing
of motor vehicles. This program has been succesfully utilized in
the past by the City and has saved thousands of dollars.
This action does not obligate the City but provides the opportunity
to participate should we desire to do so. If we elect to participate
in this program we can expect to receive the economic benefit
associated with the State's bidding of larger quantities.
