Currently 4 work <br /> stations share this printer. The frustrations come from waiting <br /> for the print results and the delays created by large print jobs <br /> competing for the printer. Staff has reviewed the cost of an <br /> additional winter for the building/planning secretary. The cost <br /> would be $1,721. <br /> Since this is not a budgeted purchase, staff investigated the <br /> possibility of funding the purchase within the department <br /> affected. The planning department has - a $5 , 000 budget for <br /> consulting services. This was primarily intended for graphics <br /> work for the Comprehensive plan update. The majority of the <br /> graphics work has been completed and we do not expect to spend <br /> over $3 ,000 of the budgeted amount during this year. Therefore, <br /> $2,000 is available in the department. Our recommendation is to <br /> utilize this amount for the printer. <br /> Prices were solicited from the 5 vendors listed below: <br /> Cedar Computers $1,903 . <br /> Computerland 2,253 <br /> Entre Computer Center 1,721 <br /> Dodd-Technical Corp. _ _ -1890 <br /> Micro Age 2,114 <br /> Staff recommends the purchase be awarded to Entre Computer <br /> Center, who supplied the low quote of $1,721. <br /> le---PAJ'" -t--------- <br /> - - ---- Ric -M' etor <br /> City Engineer/Director of Public Works <br /> RECOMMENDATION; <br /> Staff recommends awarding the purchase of a H P Laserjet III <br /> printer to Entre Computer Center in the amount of $1,721 to be <br /> charged against account # 100-4130-703 . <br />
