Approval of this authorization will allow the MPO to purchase office furniture and related items to ensure all staff have equal access to the same standardized furniture sets and accommodate in-office collaboration space.

In 2017, the MPO moved its office space to a larger suite to accommodate current and future anticipated staffing needs. As part of the move for the expansion, the MPO purchased new furniture to fill the empty offices. Over the years, the MPO has strategically upgraded the old furniture to be in line with the newer style. This will be the final purchase to unify the style in the office and ensure all staff have equal access to the same office furniture. For the furniture replacement quote, please see the Attachment.

MPO staff will be available at the upcoming meeting to address any questions or comments.

MPO staff recommends approval of the authorization for the purchase of office furniture in an amount not to exceed $75,000.
