Re: Ordinance No. 51-02 Waiving Competitive Bidding Requirements for the Purchase of
Alcoholic Beverages for 2002 Dublin Irish Festival
By: David L. Harding, Director of Human Resources/Procurement
Attached for your consideration please find Ordinance No. 51-02 waiving competitive bidding
requirements for the procurement of alcoholic beverages for the 2002 Dublin Irish Festival. (Section
8.04 (c) of the Revised Dublin Charter authorizes Council, by a vote of no less than five (5)
members, to waive competitive bidding requirements if it determines that such wa~riler is in the best
interest of the City.)
This year, as in years past, the alcohol (beer) sponsor for the Dublin Irish Festival is Killian's Irish
Red. In exchange for the sponsorship dollars and advertising support provided by Killian's, the
Festival serves only products offered by Coors, the parent company of Killian's Irish Red.
Expenditures for the purchase of alcohol (beer) for the 2002 Festival are estimated at $62,000.
Appropriate funding for this purchase has been authorized by the 2002 Operating Budget.
