CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT
Resolution of the City of San Bernardino awarding a purchase order to Motorola Incorporated, Riverside CA
for the purchase of four vehicle radios and eight portable radios.
BACKGROUND
On 10-19-98, the Mayor and Common Council ratified Resolution No. 98-305, ratifying the proposed Citizens
Option for Public Safety (COPS) expenditure plan for FY 1998/99, submitted by the Chief of Police.
The expenditure plan included a number of equipment purchases needed to support the Department's new
Distressed Neighborhoods Grant Team to enable them to successfully complete the grant objectives. The
Department will be purchasing four, fully equipped police pursuit vehicles including the purchase of four
Motorola 800 MHz vehicle radios, at a cost of $10,771.08. Additionally, we will be purchasing eight Motorola
800 MHz handi-talkie radios, at a cost of $20,462.44, one each for the assigned grant officers. The total cost
of these two purchases will be $31,233.52.
The City of San Bernardino owns a proprietary 800 MHz trunked system built and designed by Motorola
Corporation. Because of the proprietary trunking technology, only Motorola brand radios can be utilized.
Radios for public safety are only available directly through Motorola Corporation or an authorized regional
sales company. Motorola Corporation is the only entity that will offer a government discount from the retail
price. This discount has been factored into this purchase order. The police department is requesting that the
Mayor and Common Council exempt bidding for this equipment pursuant to Section 3.04.010B.3 of the San
Bernardino Municipal Code.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There will be no financial impact on the City's General Fund. One hundred percent of the funding will be
derived from the Department's Citizens Option for Public Safety (COPS) expenditure plan for FY 1998/99,
ratified by the Mayor and Common Council.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt resolution.
