BACKGROUND AND COMMENT
PAGE 2
1.0 BackQround
As approved in the 2004 Emergency Services Capital Budget, Opticoms are to be
installed on six (6) Traffic signals along Highway 2 in Courtice.
As the Region of Durham installs and monitors all our traffic signals, it is necessary to
waive the requirement for tendering in accordance with Purchasing By-law #94-129,
Paragraph 5, Item 5.6 and that a purchase order be issued in the amount of $40,410.00.
The required funds will be drawn from account #110-28-281-82820-7401 and are within
the budget allocation as provided for in the 2004 Emergency Services Capital Budget.
The Director of Finance has reviewed the funding requirements and concurs with the
recommendation. Queries with respect to department needs, specifications, etc. should
be directed to the Director of Engineering.
As timing is of the essence for the installation of the opticoms, a forthwith approval is
requesled.
