Funding for this purchase is currently available in 210-48860-340-2 (Machinery and
Equipment) for an amount not to exceed $41,969.30.
This purchase will be made in accordance with an existing Cooperative Purchasing
Agreement with the National Intergovernmental Purchasing Alliance 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 Professional Turf
Products, L.P. The Grapevine Golf Course staff and Purchasing reviewed the contract for
specification compliance and pricing and determined that the contract would provide the
best product and pricing for meeting the needs of the City.
The utility vehicle is being purchased as a replacement for a vehicle that is six years old
and the trap rake is replacing a rake that is nine years old. They both have become a
burden to our repair budget.
Staff recommends approval.
