FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: APRIL 7, 2026
SUBJECT: PURCHASE OF BLUEBONNET GREEN RESURFACING AT THE GOLF
COURSE
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider approval for the purchase of Bluebonnet green
resurfacing at the Golf Course from Greenscapes Six, LLC for the Golf
Department.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Lake Enterprise (Golf) Fund in an amount not
to exceed $518,750.
BACKGROUND: This purchase is for the golf course greens resurfacing of Bluebonnet 9
and the older putting green located by Bluebonnet 1 tee box. This
purchase would also include extra work on the Bluebonnet 9 golf course,
including contour work on Bluebonnet hole 2, right of the cart path, and
Bluebonnet hole 3, left of the cart path, removing the first bunker on right
of Bluebonnet hole 7, adding a bunker on Bluebonnet hole 7 and hole 9,
and sod work throughout the Bluebonnet golf course.
The greens have not been resurfaced since Bluebonnet was built in 1998.
The lifespan for TifEagle Bermuda grass greens, which Grapevine Golf
Course currently has and will continue to have, should be 20 years to
remain healthy. The resurfacing process will take 4-5 months from killing
the greens, removing the organic matter 6 inches deep, replacing the
sand layer that was removed then sprigging the greens and finally the
grow in process (watering, fertilizing).
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
Greenscapes Six, LLC. The Golf 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.
