FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: MAY 7, 2024
SUBJECT: PURCHASE OF CHRISTMAS TREES AND DECORATIONS FOR THE
REC
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider approval for the purchase of Christmas trees and
decorations for The REC from Park Hill Collections, LLC for the Parks and
Recreation Department.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Permanent Capital Maintenance/Replacement
Fund (Holiday Decorations) for a total amount not to exceed $24,046.
BACKGROUND: This purchase is for the replacement of Christmas trees and decorations
at The REC of Grapevine. The current decorations, which are part of the
Park Hill Collection, have been in use for the past nine years and have
endured significant wear and tear due to the facility's heavy engagement
and foot traffic. Park Hill Collections, LLC is the original supplier of many
of the decorations and trees used at The REC. This purchase is being
made via sole source so the existing decorations that will remain and the
new decorations that are being purchased will coordinate/match with both
coming from the Park Hill Collection.
This procurement will be made as a sole source in accordance with Local
Government Code Chapter 252, Subchapter B, § 252.022. General
Exemptions (a)(7)(A). Park Hill Collections, LLC is the documented sole
source provider for these products in the DFW area.
Staff recommends approval.
