In February 2004 the City Commission approved resolution 04-0091 authorizing the City

Service vendors, piggybacking current, renewal or replacement State of Florida Contracts for the
Information Technology Department with funds allocated from ITD Strategic Funds, CIP
accounts, or the operating budgets of various departments in the sum of $900,000 for the current
fiscal year (fiscal year 2003-04), and from the operating budgets of various departments, CIP
accounts, or IT Strategic Funds as may be adjusted from time to time by the City Commission in
the Annual Appropriations/ Capital Improvements Ordinances, or as otherwise adjusted as
permitted by law for subsequent fiscal years without the need for any further City Commission
authorization.
Throughout this year the Information Technology Department has made extensive use of this
resolution to procure needed assistance for the following strategic initiatives; replacement of the
General Ledger Financial / Payroll HR Systems with an ERP System, replacement of the Police
& Fire CAD and CARE Systems, migration of mission critical applications from a proprietary
computer system to open systems platforms, replacement of the City's Building and Permitting
Systems with an integrated Land Management System, development of an enterprise GIS
architecture, administration of desktop technology, and upgrade of the City's technology
infrastructure with a more secure infrastructure that provides a platform for the deployment of
modern technologies especially e-government services.
This resolution needs to be amended to provide for additional funding from the UASI (Urban
Area Security Initiative Grant Program II) Grant for the acquisition of project management
consulting services for the implementation of the new Public Safety CAD and Care Systems for
the Police ar YFire Departments, approved at the July 22, 2004 Commission meeting.
