Home My WebLink AboutItem 4.3 - 3459 Senior Center Table and Chair Replacement (2) Page 1 of 2 STAFF REPORT CITY COUNCIL DATE: December 1, 2020 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers FROM: Linda Smith, City Manager SUBJECT: Purchase of Replacement Tables, Chairs and Related Equipment from MityLite for the Dublin Senior Center Prepared by: Liz Elliott, Recreation Coordinator EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The City Council will consider authorizing the purchase of replacement tables, chairs, and related equipment from MityLite for the Dublin Senior Center. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Resolution Authorizing the Purchase of Tables, Chairs, and Related Equipment from MityLite for the Dublin Senior Center. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The funding to purchase replacement tables, chairs, and related equipment for an estimated cost of $71,800 is included in the General Fund Operating Budget (Capital Outlay) approved by the City Council as part of the annual budget process. DESCRIPTION: The City replaces tables, chairs, and other furniture when these items reach the end of service life or become unsafe for use. The Senior Center furniture designated to be replaced is at least 15 years old and includes folding tables and stacking chairs that are used throughout the facility. The furniture is used for private events, senior programs, and a variety of other activities that take place in the banquet room and multipurpose rooms at the Senior Center. Additionally, some furniture has already been discarded in recent years due to appearance and safety concerns. Staff is recommending procurement of MityLite brand furniture. The City has existing MityLite furniture at the Dublin Senior Center and other City facilities. Replacement with similar furniture will allow for use of current storage racks and carts and the ability to share matching furniture amongst facilities/rooms as needed. The quality of MityLite products and customer service has been well-regarded by Staff. MityLite also offers warranties on furniture that range from 12-15 years depending on the model. Page 2 of 2 The total cost of the replacement furniture is estimated at $71,800, which exceeds the City Manager’s purchasing authority. The attached resolution (Attachment 1) authorizes this transaction. Furthermore, Staff seeks the City Council’s approval to waive the competitive bidding process for these purchases, via Section 2.36.100.B.9 of the City Municipal Code. This section provides an exemption to a competitive bidding process “when another public agency has administered a competitive bidding process and has a current valid agreement for the same or substantially similar consultant or professional services, general services, supplies, or equipment”. MityLite offers its products at negotiated prices to local government agencies based on pricing submitted through a Federal General Services Administration (GSA) pricing schedule. GSA pricing schedules are long-term governmentwide contracts with commercial firms providing federal, state, and local government buyers with access to commercial supplies and services at discount pricing. The Federal GSA Authorized Schedule Price List, contract GS-03F-041DA, is valid through January 2021. The GSA schedule with pricing from MityLite is included with this Staff Report as Attachment 2.
