Body
Dear Sir:
Authorization is requested to make payment, by direct voucher, to WateReuse Association for the District’s 2020 membership dues in an amount not to exceed $13,450.00. The term of the District’s membership is January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020.
The WateReuse Association is a not-for-profit trade association for water utilities, businesses, industrial and commercial enterprises, not-for-profit organizations and associations that focuses solely on advancing laws, policy and funding to increase water reuse. Their mission is to engage members in a national movement for safe and sustainable water supplies, to promote acceptance and support of recycled water, and to advocate for policies and funding that increase water reuse.
Inasmuch as WaterReuse Association membership is not available through any other source, nothing would be gained by advertising for bids (Section 11.4 of the Purchasing Act).
It is hereby recommended that the Board of Commissioners authorize payment, by direct voucher, to WateReuse Association, in the amount of $13,450.00. Funds are available in Account 101-15000-612280.
Requested, Eileen M. McElligott, Administrative Services Officer, JRM:TG:PS

Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement
