RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider approval for the purchase of a replacement pump
for Oak Grove pump house from Precision Pump Systems for the Parks
and Recreation Department.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Capital Replacement Fund (Parks) for an
amount not to exceed $30,147.
BACKGROUND: This is for the purchase of a submersible pump for the Oak Grove
irrigation pump house. This pump will replace a failed pump that was
beyond its life expectancy and is not cost effective to repair.
This purchase will be made in accordance with an existing interlocal
agreement with The Local Government Purchasing Cooperative (Buy
Board) as allowed by Texas Local Government Code, Chapter 271 and
Texas Government Code, Chapter 791.
Bids were taken by the cooperative and contracts were awarded to
Precision Pump Systems. The Parks Department and Purchasing staff
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.
Staff recommends approval.
