FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Permanent Capital Maintenance Fund for an amount not to exceed $29,472. BACKGROUND: Due to heavy usage and being exposed to the outdoor elements, the two slides at The REC of Grapevine must be maintained and the gel coat must be replaced periodically. This year the slides need this process to keep them safe and operational for year-round usage. 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 a contract was awarded to Amusement Restoration Companies, LLC. The Public Works and Purchasing staff reviewed the contract for departmental specification compliance and pricing and determined that the contract would best meet the needs of the City.
