BACKGROUND
This service contract will be used to purchase and install 19,860 square feet of synthetic/artificial turf and sand infill at Hillcrest Village located at 6959 Arapaho Road. This purchase will assist the City in its facility-specific condition monitoring, predictive, and preventative maintenance programs.

In addition, the project will allow for the inspection and repair of existing drainage systems, bender board perimeter installation, layering of crushed aggregate base material and the pouring of new sand infill.

Section 271.102 of the Texas Local Government Code authorizes a local government to participate in a Cooperative Purchasing Program with another local government or a local cooperative organization.
