DISCUSSION The Santa Ana Police Department issues traffic flares to officers for use in the performance of their duties. Traffic flares have a variety of uses by the officers, including routing of traffic during special events, and cordoning off traffic during crime and accident investigations. Santa Ana City Ordinance No. NS-2312 authorizes the City to purchase against contracts from any public agency utilizing a competitive bid process. The County of Orange recently renewed the contract with Adamson Police Products for traffic flares for a one-year period. The initial contract was awarded as a result of open, competitive bidding, and meets the City requirements. Staff recommends the renewal to the contract. The City establishes an annual blanket order list consisting of vendors that provide supplies and services that are required by agencies on a consistent basis. Adamson Industries provides a variety of supplies to the Police Department including ammunition, fingerprint and drug test kits, and patrol sedan equipment. In order for the Police Department to continue using Adamson Industries for these supplies, staff recommends approval of an increased aggregate limit. 22E-1 Contract Renewal for Traffic Flares (Spec.
