HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 22 - Chairs and DolliesMEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER MEETING DATE: OCTOBER 7, 2025 SUBJECT: PURCHASE OF CHAIRS AND DOLLIES FOR STEWART HALL RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider approval for the purchase of chairs and dollies for Stewart Hall from WRG, LLC for the Parks and Recreation Department. FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Permanent Capital Maintenance Fund (Parks & Recreation) for an amount not to exceed $70,719. BACKGROUND: This purchase is for the replacement of the chairs and dollies in Stewart Hall at The REC of Grapevine. The current chairs are more than 10 years old and have begun to show significant wear. Their age and design have made them increasingly difficult for senior participants to use, with many expressing challenges when getting in and out of the chairs. This impacts both comfort and safety during programs and events. Updated seating will provide improved support, creating a safer and more comfortable experience for seniors and all patrons. In addition, new dollies are needed to ensure chairs can be stored and transported more efficiently, reducing strain on staff, and improving overall operations. This purchase will be made in accordance with existing and interlocal agreements with Omnia Partners Public Sector, Region VIII Education Service Center in Texas as allowed by Texas Local Government Code, Section 271 and Texas Government Code, Section 791. Bids were taken by the Cooperative and a contract was awarded WRG, LLC. The Parks and Purchasing staff reviewed the contract for departmental specification compliance and pricing and determined that the contract would provide the best service and pricing for meeting the needs of the City. Staff recommends approval J K/LW
