On January 1, 2019 under Cooperative Purchasing Agreement, the City of Phoenix, Arizona

and services by participating with other governmental units in cooperative purchasing
agreements when the best interests of the City would be served.

agreements without meeting the formal or informal solicitation and bid requirements of
Glendale City Code Sections 2-145 and 2-146.

The City desires to contract with Contractor for supplies or services identical, or nearly
identical, to the supplies or services Contractor is providing other units of government under
