I of 2 City Council Meeting of December 15, 2009 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO To: Mayor Jordan and City Council Thru: Don Marr, Chief of Staff From : Connie EdmdbstFSn, Director of Parks and Recreation Date: November 19, 2009 Subject: An ordinance waiving the requirements of formal competitive bidding and approving a contract between the City of Fayetteville and the Northwest Arkansas Economic Development District, in the amount of $53,350 to provide public recreation services for the citizens of Fayetteville for 2010. RECOMMENDATION Fayetteville Parks and Recreation Staff recommends to approve the contract with Northwest Arkansas Economic Development District (NWAEDD) to provide public recreation services for the citizens of Fayetteville and waive competitive bid for services. BACKGROUND In 1972, The City of Fayetteville begin providing financial support for the Council on Aging, Inc., to provide recreation services to senior citizens at the Hillcrest Towers and the Fayetteville Senior Center. This was the beginning of a very successful agreement that continued until the NWAEDD assumed the responsibilities of the Council on Aging in 2005. The NWAEDD provides recreational programs, meeting the needs of our senior citizen residents at the Hillcrest Tower and the Fayetteville Senior Center. It is the intent of both parties to work in cooperation to enhance the recreation facilities and program in our City, while not duplicating services in efforts to spend taxpayers' money as effectively as possible. If the NWAEDD were not serving out senior citizen population, the City would need to assume responsibility. DISCUSSION The 2010 budget includes a total of $53,350 to be transferred to the NWAEDD. Of this transfer, $30,000 comes from the Parks and Recreation Division, Parks Development Program and $23 ,350 comes from the General Government Department, Miscellaneous Division. A resolution of contractual services, as well as an ordinance to waive competitive bidding is required. The contract outlines the services the NWAEDD is providing to the City and the citizens of Fayetteville. We are requesting a waiver of competitive bids to secure the continuity of services provided and because NWAEDD has adequately served our citizens for the past three years. BUDGETIMPACT The 2010 budget includes a total of $53,350 for the transfer to the NWAEDD. This agreement has a reduction of 3% compared to prior year funds which is a reduction of $ 1 ,650. This request is contingent upon City Council approval of the 2010 proposed budget.
