• • <br />CITY OF LA PORTE <br />INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM <br />DECEMBER 21, 1988 <br />T0: Charles Smith, Chief of Police <br />;. <br />FROM: Louis Rigby, Purchasing Manage <br />SUBJECT: Sealed Bid 4k02g3 - Used Rental Vehicles <br />Advertised, sealed bids ~k02g3 for used rental cars were <br />opened and read on November 21, 1988. Bid requests were mailed to <br />four rental agencies but none were returned. <br />This is a similar situation to the one we had in March of <br />this year. I called the rental agencies and found they were <br />hesitant to bid due to the time involved, from the bid opening to <br />the actual order. They are not always sure which cars would be <br />available at the time of the order. <br />Since all bidding requirements have been met, I recommend we <br />negotiate, once again, with Avis for the purchase of these cars. <br />If this meets with your approval, I will set up a time with them <br />so that we may visit and determine which cars would be acceptable. <br />After this determination is made, please submit your <br />recommendation with an agenda request form by the prescribed time <br />before the next regular council meeting. If there is a need to <br />delay bringing this before council, please notify me. <br />LR/gr <br />xc: John Joerns <br />
