Purchasing and Procurement Issues
MAYOR DEMARIA AND HIS PROCUREMENT OFFICER CONTINUE TO VIOLATE M.G.L 30B.
Not only with GTA Landscaping but with the vehicle purchases.
When the City of Everett wanted to purchased new vehicles they violated M.G.L 30B on every purchase.
Keep in mind that the Company that they purchased from is not at fault here the Chief Procurement Officer is the one responsible along with the Mayor.
The State Contract for Vehicles when purchasing from MHQ - Municipal Vehicles is for Police Vehicles ONLY!
See Contract
The City of Everett Spent $446,167.00 from one vendor for vehicles not on this contract.
