The air conditioning unit which serves the City Hall was manufactured by the Trane Company. The unit has been in service for 16 years. 2. The compressor portion of the unit was scheduled for overhaul this year, but it was found that the wear tolerances would not justify the overhaul expense. 3. The Trane Company offers rebuilt compressors to fit the air conditioning unit which would meet the need for the particular compressor. 4. Since the compressor is a component of the larger unit made by the Trane Company and the unit would be purchased directly from the factory, there are no other suppliers of the compressor. 5. Accepting the offer of the Trane Company would necessarily exclude all others, and any attempt at advertised, competitive biddings would work incongruity, would not affect the final result and would produce no advantage to the City. IT IS THEREFORE RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Fresno, California, that advertised competitive bidding for the purchase of an exchange rebuilt compressor is dispensed with and the Purchasing Agent is authorized to purchase the compressor from the Trane Company, the total cost thereof, including taxes not to exceed $8,300.
