(A) In order to control uniformity of installation and avoid undue traffic within the controlled areas of the Police Department, the Police Chief shall call for bids on a biennial basis from alarm companies that are qualified to do the work, for the purpose of performing such work as is necessary in hooking up private alarm systems from the point in which the alarm outlet enters the police area to its termination point in the alarm box or terminal, and maintaining the alarm box or terminal in a functional state.
(B) The Police Chief may consider all pertinent factors relating to the qualifications of bidders as well as the bid price.
(C) No other alarm companies shall be permitted to engage in hooking up to the system within the Police Department except for the successful bidder, although subscribers may use whatever alarm company they desire for any other work outside of the Police Department.
