This purchase will be made in accordance with an existing Interlocal Participation Agreement with The Local Government Purchasing Cooperative (Buyboard) as allowed by Texas Local Government Code, Section 271.102, Cooperative Purchasing Program. Bids were taken by the Cooperative and a contract was awarded to Retail Commercial Flooring Services.

This request is for the replacement of carpet for the reference and public areas in the Library. This area is requiring books and shelves to be moved for carpet to be replaced. Carpet in high traffic areas has not been replaced in thirteen years and has become worn and frayed due to customer and employee foot traffic.
