radio.

047-5318-00-30-000 in the amount of$12,041.41). All cost associated with this repair is
reimbursable/deductible from our annual SETRRS annual maintenance cost.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the City Manager to authorize Motorola
Solutions of Houston, Texas through Buyboard Contract 696-23 to repair the point to point
relay at the tower in the amount of$24,028.82.
