Analysis
The Summit’s electrical panels and corresponding conduit experienced severe corrosion from pool chemicals since opening. In recent months, the pool chemicals were relocated to a structure outside of the facility. Accordingly, the electrical panels and conduit must be replaced immediately for safety and optimal functionality. The replacement of the electrical panels will coincide with the closure of the Summit and the project’s expected completion date is mid-February. The electrical panels and related components will be installed using an already established cooperative agreement with Voss Lighting through NCPA contract 02-83.
Chapter 271.102 of the Local Government Code authorizes local governments to participate in a cooperative purchasing program with another local government or local cooperative organization. In lieu of competitive bidding, items and services may be purchased through such agreements as the agreements have already been bid by the sponsoring entity or agency.
This item was presented to the Finance and Government Committee on December 15, 2020 for review and approval.
Financial Consideration
Funding for Voss Lighting, in the amount of $95,361, is available by transferring and appropriating $95,361 from the unobligated fund balance in the Parks Capital Projects Fund (317193), WO #02103003 (Summit AC & Electrical Replacement), 68020 (Miscellaneous Improvements).
