Background: The City’s Parks & Recreation Department currently uses Musco Sports Lighting, LLC, to provide lighting at existing tennis courts and ball fields throughout the various parks in the City. In doing so, park visitors are able to enjoy evening play at these sports courts. The Purchasing Policy & Procurement Manuel approved by City Council has Musco Sports Lighting, LLC, listed as a qualified product. This allows for standardized lighting throughout the parks. This is not a local firm.
Issues/Analysis: Staff has reviewed the Sourcewell Coop Contract and finds that it meets the needs of the City and the requirements of the City’s procurement ordinance.
Financial Information: Funds are available in the General Fund/Parks & Recreation - Parks/Repairs and Maintenance Other (#001-7210-5463000-00000). Future expenditures will be appropriated in each year’s budget.
Special Consideration: Sourcewell is a service cooperative created to provide programs and services to members in the government, education, and non-profit sectors. The statutory purpose is to assist members in meeting specific needs which are more efficiently delivered cooperatively than by an individual entity. Sourcewell is a self-supporting government agency with oversight from a board of publicly elected officials.
Location of Project: Various park locations.
