HomeMy WebLinkAbout9/6/2000 - STAFF REPORTS (13) DATE: September 6, 2000
TO: City Council
FROM: Parks and Recreation Manager via Director, Department of Facilities
PURCHASE OF PLAY EQUIPMENT FROM MIRACLE RECREATION EQUIPMENT CO.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve the purchase of play equipment from Miracle
Recreation Equipment Company at the same volume discount pricing that it has
set for the State of California, according to the state's terms and conditions, for the
site located in Victoria Park, for a total amount of$56,134.98.
BACKGROUND:
For several years, City staff has recognized the need to modernize play equipment
in parks throughout the community. However, due to limited resources available
to the department, upgrades have been limited to only those individual pieces of
equipment that required replacing rather than addressing the needs of entire
structures.
In fiscal year 1998-99, City Council realized the need for play equipment
replacement at several locations and appropriated funds to begin the systematic
replacement of play structures in parks throughout the community. These funds
were to be used for replacement of the most critical and non-compliant equipment
first. That equipment was determined to be at Ruth Hardy Park and Sunrise Plaza,
respectively, as they were the oldest structures.
The installation of new play equipment was completed at Ruth Hardy Park and
Sunrise Plaza this past fiscal year.
A Parks and Recreation Commission subcommittee was appointed to develop the
list of projects to be funded through the "Utility Users Tax - Measure Y," with the
replacement of the play equipment at Victoria Park being the subcommittee's top
priority for fiscal year 2000-01.
As Miracle Recreation Equipment Company provides the most extensive materials
warranty in the business and its equipment is fully compliant with year 2000
standards, staff felt comfortable in using its equipment designs. Also, due to
Miracle's State of California Price Schedule, on file in the office of the City Clerk,
it is able to offer substantial discounts to the City that other equipment
manufacturers do not.
The City's Procurement Manager, pursuant to the requirements of Municipal Code
Section 3.12.270.6, finds that the competitive process conducted by the State of
California for the proposed purchase is adequate to protect the public interest and
the total cost of the services and material is likely to be less through the proposed
cooperative purchase than could be obtained through the City's independent
purchasing.
