SUBJECT:
SECOND EXTENSION OF AGREEMENT WITH NATIONAL DATA &:

CITY OF MIAMI BEACH THE TIME TO ISSUE A REQUEST FOR

The City Administration recommends that the City Commission approve
a second extension of four (4) months to the Agreement with
National Data & Communications, until August 30, 1994, to provide
uninterrupted communications services to the users of the Miami
Beach Convention Center while the City issues a Request for

BACKGROUND:
City Commission Resolution No. 88-19294 authorized the Mayor and
the City Clerk to approve the assigi.1ment of the original Agreement
with Future Telecommunications, Inc. to Miami Communications, Inc.
(National Data & Communications, Inc.) in July 1988. The oLiginal
Agreement commenced February 10, 1986 and ended February 9, 1991
for a five (5) year term. Resolution No. 89-19806. extended the
original Agreement for two (2) additional years, until February 9,
1994. Resolution No. 94-21029 further extended the Agreement until
April 30, 1994.
ANALYSIS
This second extension will grant the City adequate time to issue a
Request for Proposals, since the City chose not to purchase the
telecommunications equipment from National Data & Communications,
Inc.
CONCLUSION:
Since the extension of the Agreement expires on April 30, 1994,
this second extension of the Agreement until August 30, 1994 is
needed in order to provide the City with adequate time to issue an
R.F.P. without interrupting the services currently being provided
by National Data & Communications.
