fires, hazardous chemical incidents and other emergency situations throughout the City of Fort Worth.
The Fire Department has reviewed the pricing and finds the cost to be competitive. Under Section 271.083
of the Texas Local Government Code, a local government purchasing an item under such a contract
satisfies any state law requiring that the local government seek competitive bids for purchase of the item.
