MEETING DATE: AUGUST 4, 2015
PRECASTSUBJECT: APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION FOR THE PURCHASE OF A
RESTROOM
Consider a resolution authorizing the purchase of a precast restroom for use at The
REC multi-purpose field from CXT Precast Products, Inc. through an Agreement for
Cooperative Purchasing with the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA).
FUNDING SOURCE:
Funding for this purchase is currently available in (Quality of Life Fund) not to exceed
$65,229.29.
Purchases will be made in accordance with an existing Cooperative Agreement with the
National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA) as allowed by Texas Local Government Code,
Section 271.081, 082 and 083.
Bids were taken by the cooperative and a contract was awarded to CXT Precast
Products, Inc. The Parks & Recreation Department staff and Purchasing reviewed the
contract for departmental specification compliance and pricing and determined that the
contract would provide the best product and pricing for meeting the needs of the City.
This purchase adds a restroom to the field at The REC of Grapevine. The old
Community Activities Center practice soccer field had port -a -potties and the plan was to
install a CXT restroom in the future. Due to the flood, all lighted soccer fields in the City
will be unplayable this Fall and next Spring. Therefore, we have accelerated this project
to have a synthetic field with lights and a restroom available as soon as possible which
will help with games and practices for the youth soccer program in Grapevine. The
proposed restroom will be a small two unit restroom similar to Pickering Park. The
restroom is made of concrete and finishes that will complement the exterior of The REC.
Staff recommends approval.
