Body
BACKGROUND
This action does not encumber funds; the purpose of a master agreement is to establish firm pricing for goods, for a specific term, which are ordered on an as needed basis according to annual budgetary appropriations. The estimated amount is intended as guidance rather than a cap on spending under the agreement, so that actual need combined with the amount budgeted will determine the amount spent under this agreement.
This master agreement will allow for the purchase of athletic, physical education, gymnasium supplies, and equipment to support the Park and Recreation Department’s sports programs and activities. These activities include basketball, softball, baseball, track and field.
Items purchased under this agreement includes but are not limited to:
• Team uniforms
• Team practice equipment
• Basketball and volleyball court supplies
• Sports balls
• Nets
The master agreement will also provide youth sports gear for 10,000 youth annually for recreation centers, after school programs, annual summer camps, and 19 Send A Kid to Camp sites.
The Texas Association of School Boards cooperative agreement is authorized by Chapter 791 of the Texas Government Code and Subchapter F, Chapter 271, Texas Local Government Code. Section 271.102 of the Texas Local Government Code which authorizes a local government to participate in a Cooperative Purchasing Program with another local government or a local cooperative organization.
