It
is obvious that it is "budget season" as this was
a lightly attended meeting this month.
Nancy

She has a new Water Superintendent, has been around
for a while and worked for several other cities. He
came from El Segundo. Seems he is going to be easy
to work with.
Felice

The city has had an engineer leave and go to work
for the City of El Segundo. The City has also moved
her purchasing office and now has the entire Finance
Department on one floor.
Paul
Herman-City of Burbank
His interest right now is in the area of fuel. It
appears that the Cities of Pasadena, Glendale and
Burbank are trying to do a co-op bid for fuel.
Paul also mentioned that the City of Glendale recycles
their e-waste.
Cynthia

The city just finished a proposal for auction services.
Contact Cynthia for results of the bid.
Matthew
Weintraub-City of El Monte
Matthew informed us of a law enforcement vendor show
in Azusa. He also mentioned another upcoming show
in the San Bernardino/Riverside area at the end of
this month.
He has
now taken advantage of the desk top delivery offered
by the various office supply vendors and is very happy
with the results so far.
Next month he may be bringing a new person to the
meeting as his City is looking at hiring someone into
the purchasing department.
Lastly he thanked all in Lamppac for their assistance.
He said everyone has been very helpful to him and
wanted to express his appreciation.
J. Richard Hogate-City of El
Segundo
The city has a new purchasing code in place. His City
Manager leaves in July.
Due to the growth we have experienced in our LAMPPAC
membership, we are considering a style of letterhead
that would incorporate the names of all the cities
and agencies involved as members. Richard has been
kind enough to take the lead with this project.
Mike
Hunter-City of Lakewood
The city is preparing for the oldest city sponsored
event in city history, The Pan American games held
at Mayfair Park.
