SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO LEASE COPIER
STAFF REPORT
ISSUE
Should the Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners authorize execution of a new lease
agreement with Pitney Bowes for the purpose of upgrading the current copier to a digital copier for
the police department.
BACKGROUND
Currently, the Ocoee Police Department is leasing from Pitney Bowes a C650 copying system in
which the lease expires this year. The current copier requires a maintenance repair from a service
call from our department approximately once a week. Pitney Bowes is offering to replace the
current copier with a PB DL550 digital copier, and roll the remainder of the existing lease into the
new lease for a period of 48 months at the same monthly cost as the current lease and lower the
monthly maintenance cost we are currently paying by $15 per month; this will also show our
current copier as paid in full thus allowing us to keep the existing copier. The new copier will
produce a better product by utilizing the digital technology. The performance of the new copier
should enhance the productivity of the personnel and cut on the down time. The money for this lease
is already budgeted for this fiscal year.
RECOMMENDATION •
It is respectfully recommended that the Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners
authorize this request for the lease of a new copier and authorization.for the Mayor, City Clerk and
Finance to execute the necessary documents.
