Resolution authorizing the purchase of one hundred twenty five (125) golf carts piggybacking from a City of Bartow contract valued at $326,225 and authorizing the purchase of additional accessories using a quantity discount from the National Intergovernmental Purchasing Alliance (IPA) Contract R161101 valued at $26,125, totaling $352,350 from E-Z-Go Division of Textron, Inc., 1451 Marvin Griffin Road, Augusta, GA 30906-3852. The current fleet of golf carts are more than five years old and are becoming very undependable with excessive breakdowns. This unreliability reflects negatively on the City during recreational play but more so when tournaments are being sponsored at the golf course. Funds available in the Municipal Golf Course Fund.
Recommendation: Business Enterprise Management Director recommends adoption of the Resolution.
