Title
A Resolution approving the purchase of capital items for Sports Tourism including a reel mower, robotic painter and front mount mower.
Summary
Sports Tourism has several capital items we need to purchase including a reel mower, robotic painter, and front mount mower. We need an additional reel mower for Foley Sports Tourism Fields especially due to the maintenance issues of our older equipment. The item is over budget by $11,602.08 costing $81,602.08. The purchase will be through the Sourcewell Grounds Maintenance Contract 031121-DAC (PG NB CG 70). We also need a robotic painter to paint the high school fields, stadium, recreation, and as a backup to tournaments if weather issues occur. The painter is $45,500 and $9,500 under budget. Finally, we need a front mount mower for maintaining commons throughout the complex. We will surplus an older mower when we purchase the front mount. The purchase will be through the Sourcewell Grounds Maintenance Contract 031121-DAC (PG NB CG 70) and cost $31,945.72 which is $3,054.28 under budget. The surplus budget from the robot painter and the front mount mower will be enough to cover the overage on the reel mower, so no budget adjustment is necessary on these three items.
