Funds were authorized in the Park Capital Projects Fund for the purchase of greens covers for both Prairie Lakes and Tangle Ridge Golf courses. The greens covers are available on TASB Buy Board Contract #447-14 from BWI. Rebar, sand bags, and sand required for the installation of the covers are available for purchase under established price agreements from Barnsco, Grainger, and Turf Materials, respectively.
State purchasing laws authorize local governments to enter into inter-local and cooperative agreements for the performance of governmental functions normally associated with the operation of government, such as purchasing of necessary materials and supplies. The City of Grand Prairie does not need to competitively bid items purchased through such agreements as they have already been bid by the sponsoring entity. The City of Grand Prairie has master inter-local cooperative agreements with TASB Buy Board.
Additional funds will be used to purchase a storage pod for the green covers. It is expected that this cost will not exceed $3,000/unit once it is combined with other pod purchases within the department.
This agenda item was approved by the Finance and Government Committee on November 4, 2014.
