Title
CONSIDER APPROVAL TO AMEND BLANKET PURCHASE ORDERS FOR ROBERTSON'S READY MIX, LTD., AND ROADLINE PRODUCTS, INC.,
Body
I. SUMMARY
City Council approval is requested to authorize the Purchasing Department to appropriate additional funds to the blanket purchase order agreement for Robertson's Ready Mix, Ltd., and Roadline Products, Inc
With the focus on sidewalk work by the Right of Way crews this fiscal year, more concrete work was completed than was originally budgeted during the annual budgeting process. Because much of the asphalt work was contracted out this year, the City's operations and maintenance crews have completed significantly more sidewalk work, necessitating additional concrete purchases to complete the year. Other expenditures are related to curb paint and sign-making materials.
Because the request is to amend purchase orders of existing vendors, Public Works is requesting City Council to waive the bidding requirements for these existing vendors.

2. AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Division to amend PO #22200309 for Roadline Products, Inc. not to exceed $96,995.00.
