FUNDING SOURCE: Funding for this purchase is currently available in account 100-48860-120-9 (Machinery and Equipment) in the amount not to exceed $67,990.00. 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 Musco Sports Lighting, LLC. The Parks & Recreation Department 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. This purchase is to replace parts for the sports field lighting at Oak Grove soccer and Oak Grove softball fields due to flood damage. The lights were under warranty at the time of the flood; however, damage caused by "acts of God" is excluded from warranty coverage. This purchase is to ensure that the remainder of the City's 25 year warranty stays intact. Staff recommends approval TS/BS 9/9/2015 (11:12:15 AM) RESOLUTION NO.
