Title
Consider a resolution rejecting the proposals for Grounds Management Services - Keller Sports Park Athletic Fields, for the Parks and Recreation Department.
Action Requested:
Reject the proposals for Athletic Field Mowing for the Keller Sports Park received on July 2, 2021.
Background:
On July 2, 2021, city staff received six (6) proposals for Athletic Field Mowing at the Keller Sports Park. Two (2) bids were incomplete and were disqualified. The remaining four (4) bids came in higher than expected and would result in additional funds needed to operate the Keller Sports Park at its current service level than is currently budgeted.
After thorough staff analysis, it was determined that continuing to perform the mowing of the athletic fields at the Keller Sports Park with city staff and city owned equipment would be less expensive than contracting this service to outside vendors.
Staff will continue to analyze cost savings measures on a continuous basis to determine if a recommended course of action.
