COMPTROLLER'S MEMORANDUM NO. 07 (1995-96)
SUBJECT: EQUIPMENT LEASES - COPIERS
Effective November 1, 1995, the prior
approval of the Comptroller's Office will be required
only for those copier leases that exceed the purchasing Category
Two threshold (currently $11,000), established in Section 287.017,
Florida Statutes. All other terms and conditions of Comptroller's
Memorandum No. 4 (1995-96), regarding leasing of equipment remain
in effect and shall be applicable to leases of copiers.
We remind agencies that regardless
of the annual cost of the lease or the acquisition method, it
shall be the responsibility of the procuring agency to evaluate
and maintain documentation to support that a lease is economically
prudent and cost effective. We intend to periodically review
the agencies internal operating procedures and supporting documentation
for compliance and reserves the right to adjust the exemption
threshold, on an agency by agency basis, depending on the findings.
Please direct all inquiries about equipment leases to the Bureau of Accounting at 410-9951, Suncom 210-9951.
In the future, we plan to disseminate
Comptroller Memorandums by facsimile. Please provide your facsimile
