RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN RAFAEL
AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO PUBLISH A REQUEST FOR
PROPOSAL FOR A NEW TELEPHONE SYSTEM AND SELECT THE MOST
RESPONSIVE AND QUALIFIED PROPOSAL BY USE OF COMPETITIVE
NEGOTIATION.
Whereas, the City recognizes the importance of maintaining an efficient
telephone system for effectively communicating within and outside the City
organization; and,
Whereas, the current telephone system lacks the features and functionality
currently available in modern systems; and,
Whereas, acquisition and implementation of a new telephone system requires a
competitive purchasing process and the evaluation of sealed bids is not practical
for such complex systems; and,
Whereas, the San Rafael Municipal Code, section 2.55.190, allows the City
Council to authorize the City Manager to purchase equipment or services by use
of competitive negotiation;
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED AND RESOLVED that the City
Manager is authorized to publish a Request for Proposal for a new Telephone
System and select the most responsive and qualified proposal by use of
competitive negotiation pursuant to San Rafael Municipal Code Sections
2.55.190 and 2.55.200.
I, JEANNE M. LEONCINI, Clerk of the City of San Rafael, hereby certify that the
foregoing resolution was duly and regularly introduced and adopted
at a regular meeting of the San Rafael City Council meeting held on
the eighteenth day of December, 2006 by the following vote, to wit:
AYES: COUNCILMEMBERS: Cohen, Heller, Phillips, and Mayor Boro
