RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA AUTHORIZING SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE
FROM DIGITAL EQUIPMENT CORPORATION (DEC) FOR
TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEM CENTRAL COMPUTER AND
ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, Section 2.56.170 of the Chula Vista Municipal
Code authorizes the Purchasing Agent to dispense with the
requirements of bidding when the City Council determinesa that
due to special circumstances, it is to the City's best interest
to purchase a commodity or enter into a contract without
compliance with the bidding procedure, and
WHEREAS, the Council hereby finds that competitive
bidding for the acquisition for the traffic control system
computer and its related equipment is impractical because of the
excessive software development costs that would be incurred if a
computer other than the DEC MicroVAX II were acquired, and
WHEREAS, one of the major reasons for choosing JHK and
Associates was based on their concept of traffic control which
uses a relative small and inexpensive computer and JHK has done
most of the software development for this concept based on the
above DEC computer and if they were required to program for a
different computer, the costs for this project would increase
significantly.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Chula Vista does hereby waive the bidding procedure
and authorize the sole source purchase from Digital Equipment
Corporation (DEC) for traffic control system center computer and
associated equipment.
