AGENDA HEADING:
Request City’s Purchasing Division to issue a
blanket purchase order to Great American Outdoors (South) Van
Wall Group, Don Van Houweling, owner, 710 Army Post
Rd., Des Moines, IA 50315 for equipment
repair parts to be purchased during fiscal year 2010.
SYNOPSIS:
Recommend
approval for the City’s Purchasing Agent to issue a blanket purchase order for
John Deere equipment repair parts to Great American Outdoors (South), the sole
area-wide distributor.
FISCAL
IMPACT:
Amount: $50,000
Funding
Source: FY10-11 Operating Budget, Equipment
Maintenance GE001 PKS041000, page 183.
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION:
The
City Park and Recreation Department utilizes John Deere mowing and other
related equipment extensively in its turf maintenance program. Repair parts must be purchased to keep this equipment
operating. Municipal Code section 2-726
(a) (6) provides for a non-competitive procurement of repair parts when the
required parts are available only from a single area-wide distributor and
competitive bids for such parts are thus not prospectively attainable.
