Body
Legislative History
RESOLUTION NO. 20-162: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER, DURING THE YEAR 2026, TO ADVERTISE FOR BIDS OR TO UTILIZE THE VARIOUS CHARTER-AUTHORIZED GOVERNMENTAL COMPETETIVE PURCHASING PROGRAMS AND ENTER INTO CONTRACTS FOR CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS , SUPPLIES, SERVICES AND EQUIPMENT
Purpose & Explanation
The current golf car fleet is failing due to excessive use. Normal wear when the last agreement was created was based on a 35,000 round golf season. Ellsworth is now at a consistent 50,000+round level. This has been noticeable with cart failures and down time. This down time is limiting/affecting play and has the potential to affect revenue if conditions get worse. This amended agreement will allow for a new 70 cart fleet to be delivered later this season. The city will not make the last $66,150 payment on the old agreement. The first payment of the new agreement will be in 2027. The new agreement will be for a six-year term. Ellsworth will receive a new fleet after the third year. This will alleviate the wear issues we are currently faced with.
The amended lease will be completed through the Sourcewell contract # 091024-JCS. It is anticipated that the golf cars will arrive in 2026.
