FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: MARCH 17, 2020
SUBJECT: APPROVAL FOR THE PURCHASE OF REPLACEMENT FURNITURE
FOR THE REC
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider the approval for the purchase of replacement
furniture for The REC from Spencer & Company for the Parks and
Recreation Department.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Recreation Repairs and Maintenance budget
(174-74015-312-069) for a total amount not to exceed $60,144.
BACKGROUND: The furniture for The REC has been in high traffic/high impact commercial
use for five years. The furniture is beginning to show significant wear and
many pieces have been repaired several times. As a part of the PARD
maintenance/replacement plan, it is time to replace some existing furniture
in the active adults lounge, in the lounge area that over looks the pool and
various other items throughout the building. The original interior designer
for The REC selected the replacement pieces to stay consistent with the
design, look and personality of the facility.
This purchase will be made in accordance with existing interlocal
agreements with Omnia Partners Public Sector, Region VIII Education
Service Center in Texas (TIPS) and the National Cooperative Purchasing
Alliance (NCPA) 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 to
Spencer & Company. The Parks and Recreation and Purchasing staff
reviewed the contract for specification compliance and pricing and
determined that the contract would provide the best service and pricing for
meeting the needs of the City.
