Resolution No. 41100, passed November 19, 1969, had authorized the acceptance of Motorola's bid, and further authorized the City of Miami to enter into the original Lease Agreement. Resolution No. 42446, passed April 22, 1971, authorized the adding of additional units to the items shown in the original Resolution, pursuant to the terms of the Lease. The Resolutions and the Lease with Addenda were construed at that time to permit unlimited addition of units specified at the price established by bid, in addition to the quantity of units specified in the authorizing Resolutions. However, it is recognized at this time that the enabling Resolutions are ambiguous as to the quantity of equipment authorized to be acquired. Therefore, it is recommended that the acquisition of that equipment not specifically listed in the Resolutions be ratified by means of the attached proposed Resolution which has been prepared by the City Attorney whose office has assisted our department in this matter. Further acquisition authority is being discontinued and City Commission authority to solicit competitive bids for future acquisition is also contained in the accompanying Resolution.
