Staff Recommends: Approval of the attached Resolution.
Explanation:
The provision of emergency services by the Department requires the purchase and maintenance of medical supplies, fire equipment, and janitorial supplies vital to its operation in accordance with the Department’s State of Florida Emergency Medical License.
Broward County Sheriff’s Office (“BSO”) has established a program to allow governmental entities to purchase medical supplies, fire equipment and janitorial supplies directly from the Sheriff at their cost without mark ups or handling fees. BSO utilizes the same Florida Regional EMS protocols as our emergency service units and BSO supplies are delivered within 24 hours.
BSO has been supplying the Department with medical supplies, fire equipment, and janitorial supplies for many years and meets the needs of the Department. The City’s Fire Rescue and Beach Safety Department desires to continue to participate in such a program.
Fiscal Impact:
Funding for this agreement is available in the FY 2022 Operating Budget in account numbers: 001.215101.52200.552320.000000.000.000, 001.215101.52200.546310.000000.000.000, and 001.215101.52200.552310.000000.000.000.
