Title
Discussion of issues relating to the lease and acquisition of golf carts for the Battleground Golf Course.
Body
Summary:
In July 2020, the City of Deer Park entered into an agreement with PNC with a 48-month lease for 80 golf carts as part of an agreement with Touchstone Golf to manage the Battleground Golf course. The lease is in its final year and slated to end in July 2024. The City and Touchstone have now begun discussions to renew the lease and trade out the current fleet of golf carts for updated models. Quotes have been obtained to renew the lease for 48-months for 80 lithium battery golf carts.
City staff has met with Touchstone and is bringing forward a recommendation to enter into a new agreement with RXV Elite Golf Carts at $141.58 each monthly based on the attached comparison with the Lithium Batteries. The total monthly cost for the lease would be $11,326.40 and total annual cost will be $135,916.80.
Attached to this item is a cost comparisons sheet for golf carts for The Battleground Golf Course.
Fiscal/Budgetary Impact:
Funds for this lease are budgeted annual in Golf Course Lease Fund 450-49080.
