Interpretation of the Texas Local Government Code 252.022. (a)(4) considers the
laundering of linens and towels by Jiffy Wash as a personal service therefore exempting
the City under its policy to get three quotes for this service. However, staff researched
alternate vendor options for laundering linens for The Vineyards Campground and the
Golf Course throughout the city of Grapevine that would provide the quick turnaround
service required. Jiffy Wash was the only vendor capable of doing so at a reasonable
fee.
The contract was for an initial one -year period with four, one -year renewal options. If
approved, this will be for the second annual renewal of the four available. Jiffy Wash
has agreed to renew the contract with no increase in pricing and has provided this
service to the City in the past with successful results.
Staff recommends approval.
