SUBJECT:

Title

Approval of a purchase with Austin Turf and Tractor for one John Deere 2550 Triplex Greens mower for the Landa Park Golf Course through a Buy Board Contract and to declare the replaced mower as surplus.

Body

BACKGROUND / RATIONALE:

The Landa Park Golf Course is in need of one triplex greens mower to replace the last Jacobson greens mower that is used daily in the operation and mowing of greens at the golf course. The Jacobson greens mower is no longer dependable due to their old age and no equipment representative or parts department within the area. 

 

Staff recommends the John Deere 2550 Greens mower be purchased from Austin Turf and Tractor through a Buy Board contract. The Buy Board Contract has been vetted thereby satisfying the City’s competitive bidding requirement for contracts that exceed $25,000.00.  The existing mower will be declared surplus.

 The cost for the John Deere 2550 Greens mower is $39,825.
