Persistent delays in implementation of all sys- tem functions and dissatisfaction with the vendor have made it evident that continuation of the contract is not feasible. The City has proposed, and CLSI, Inc., has accepted a modification of the terms of the contracts to a month-to-month contract, which will allow the City to transfer to another system. The basic terms are as follows: f E` `I r~ 1. .City r.eta~ins certain equipment which it has purchased under the existing Acontract ~ 2. For the period from May 1, 1990, until September 30, 1990, City pays a usage fee for remaining system hardware and software from CLSI, Inc. for a cost of $7,464.80. 3. Beginning October 1, 1990, and continuing until another system is installed; City pays a usage fee on equipment and software of $9,800.00 per month. :a ~~.
