WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION
SECONDED BY: Mr. Fred Champagne
WHEREAS, the Town Board of the Town of Queensbury is desirous
of entering into an agreement with Business Automation Systems for
the purchase of necessary software, hardware, and services to
develop a computerized assessment data collection system, and
WHEREAS, the Director of Accounting Services has advised that
the assessment data collection system from Business Automation
Systems is an integral part of the overall Town-wide information
system already in place from Business Automation Systems and
therefore, it would be unnecessary to obtain proposals from other
suppliers, and
WHEREAS, the Director of Accounting Services also advises that
the purchase of the assessment data collection system from Business
Automation Services is not subject to competitive bidding, because
it comprises a "professional service" involving "special or
technical skill," the use of "professional judgment," and a "high
degree of creativity," said criteria being listed in the OSC
Financial Management Guide, subsection 8.0060, p. 12,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT
RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Queensbury hereby
approves the purchase of the necessary software, hardware, and
services from Business Automation Systems for an assessment data
collection system at a cost not to exceed $10,000.00 without
further approval, and
BE IT FURTHER,
RESOLVED, that the Town Supervisor is hereby authorized and
directed to execute, on behalf of the Town of Queensbury, a
contract to be in a form approved by the Town Attorney, and
BE IT FURTHER,
RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Queensbury hereby
notes that the cost of the services is not to exceed $10,000.00
without further approval, and that no bidding is required under law
and that in this particular case, alternative quotes are not
practical, and
BE IT FURTHER,
RESOLVED, that this proposal shall be paid for from Account
No.: 01 1355 4741.
