RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute, on behalf of the Interim Public Works Director, a blanket purchase order with Spicers Paper, Inc., in the amount of $399,990 for paper products and printing related items, for the period of September 1, 2017 to August 31, 2019, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% General Fund

BACKGROUND:

Carbonless paper and recycled copy paper is purchased in volume and is used by the County departments and the Print and Mail Services Division for printing of forms and copies. Departments also place orders for blank recycled paper through Print and Mail Services. The cost of the paper is charged back to the departments. This allows the County to purchase in bulk at lower prices.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this request is not approved, costs for paper may increase.
