Subject: Installation of Sport Court at the Arlington Street Community Center
In completing a community needs assessment, the Arlington Street Community Center
Board agreed that a multi-purpose basketball type court for the children that participate
in activities at the Center would be a valuable asset for the community. We
researched different types of courts and determined that the product manufactured by
Sport Court of MA would meet the needs for a multi-purpose court. Due to a generous
donation from A.W. Rose, LLC in the amount of $26,500 we were able to design a
court with Sport Court of MA.
Under § 5-84 A (4) Sole-source procurements, where the proposed purchase is
manufactured by only one company, the flooring component for the sport court is
specifically manufactured by Sport Court of MA and the competitive bidding process
does not apply to this purchase.
The Administrative Services Division recommends awarding the contract for the
construction of a multi-purpose sport court at the Arlington Street Community Center to
Sport Court of MA in the amount of $25,730.
