RE: AUTHORIZATION FOR PURCHASE OF OPTI-COM EMITTERS
The Police Department has in this year's budget approval for the
purchase of fifteen (15) Opti -Com Emitters. These emitters are
devices which allow for the user to control the traffic lights in
cases of emergencies, etc. The Fire Department had the Opti -Com
devices installed in October of 1995 and have informed me that just
about every traffic light within the City limits has these devices.
The acquisition of these devices will be through American Lighting
& Signalization, Inc., of Ellenton, Florida, who was awarded the
Florida Department of Transportion Bid B95-08 and who were also
awarded State of Florida Job Contract 75000-35-03. The City has
authorization to piggy -back from these contracts. The current
total cost for the fifteen transmitters is $20,700.00 (emitters are
$1380.00 each).
ACTION REQUESTED
The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners authorize
purchase of fifteen (15) Opti -Com Emitters for a total cost of
$20,700.00 from American Lighting & Signalization, Inc., utilizing
Florida Department of Transportation's Bid B95-08 and the State of
Florida's Job Contract No. 75000-35-03.
