FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: JANUARY 21, 2025
SUBJECT: PURCHASE OF REPLACEMENT CARDIOVASCULAR EQUIPMENT
FOR THE REC
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider approval for the purchase of replacement
cardiovascular equipment for the REC from Team Marathon Fitness for
the Parks and Recreation Department.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the General Fund (Parks) for a total amount not to
exceed $93,282.
BACKGROUND: This project is part of the annual equipment replacement plan for The
REC. Each year, approximately one-third of The REC's cardiovascular
equipment is replaced as part of a proactive strategy to maintain a high -
quality fitness experience. The replaced equipment includes items that are
out of warranty and have exceeded their recommended lifecycle for
commercial use.
This purchase will be made in accordance with an existing interlocal
agreement with The Local Government Purchasing Cooperative
(BuyBoard) 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 Team
Marathon Fitness. The Parks and Recreation 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.
Staff recommends approval
