BACKGROUND Foster Golf Links (FGL) currently owns 34 golf carts that were purchased through a 60 -month lease to own program in 2005. The current fleet is 6yrs old and many carts need significant repair or replacement. In addition, every year additional carts are rented to meet the high demand during the busy months. Staff desires to purchase 34 new carts based on need and demand. This will build the fleet and rentals will not be needed; the fleet will be fully operational and overall in better condition. Having more carts on hand at all times will provide more opportunities to generate revenue. When the clubhouse was constructed in 2004 the plan was to have the carts on a 4yr replacement cycle, this will begin that process to cycle out the older carts while growing the fleet size to meet the demand. The project was advertised for bids on February 17, 2011. Four bids were received and opened on Thursday, March 3, 2011 and the bids were checked and tabulated. Funding for the purchase of the carts is in the budget and comes from moving $16,100 out of 411.00.576.681.45.00 "Operating Rental and Leases" into 411.00.582.760.75.00 "Capital Leases and Install" to increase that line to $27,766 annually since rentals will no longer be needed. Instead of beginning another 60 -month lease, Foster Golf Links will "borrow from itself" to make an outright purchase of the 34 new carts, which will recoup the savings of not having to pay interest for the next 5 and half years on a lease and provide better carts sooner, the cost savings is approximately $35,000 over 5 years and 7 months, using an annual payment of $27,766 that is budgeted. If operations continue as they did in 2010 a worst case scenario could arise. The extremely poor weather in 2010 resulted in a fund loss of approximately $100,000 (after debt service payments). This loss significantly impacted an already modest fund balance. If operations continue as they did in 2010 the fund balance could go negative by the end of 2011 with the 31 INFORMATIONAL MEMO March 9, 2011 Bid Award for Purchase of 34 Golf Carts Page 2 acquisition of 34 new carts. This would result in a need to allocate 2012 general fund subsidy to the golf fund in 2011 to prevent a negative fund balance. This could simply be a timing issue because the primary golf season is just around the corner and definitely a short term issue because the "internal loan" will be paid back after four years. If the course experiences a season similar to 2010, then additional contributions from the general fund will be necessary within the current biennium, however this will correct itself in following biennium. Please see alternatives below. ANALYSIS The project was advertised for bids on February 17, 2011. Four bids were received and opened on Thursday, March 3, 2011 and the bids were checked and tabulated. Pacific Golf and Turf is the apparent lowest bidder with a base bid of $114,030.00. The estimate was $120,000.00. After reviewing the bids it was determined that Pacific Golf and Turf is the lowest qualified bidder. BUDGET AND BID SUMMARY Estimate $120,000.00 Pacific Golf and Turf $114,030.00 Northwest Yamaha Golf Cars $114,360.00 Thermo Kind Northwest $130,130.00 MC Electric Vehicles $232,830.00 ALTERNATIVES 1. Reject all bids due to the negative fund balance issue utilize short -term lease through the year and repair all current carts to fully operational at a cost of about $16,000. Additional, maintenance cost may increase this price throughout the years. The short term lease provides carts for only the high season and for large tournaments. This option cost as much as purchasing carts. However, if purchased the revenue can be collected on the carts throughout the entire year. 2. Reject all bids due to the negative fund balance issue utilize the National Intergovernmental Purchasing Alliance Company (NIPA) lease option. This is like the 'state bid' program but it is a national program. The City of Tukwila is registered with this program. The lease interest will cost approximately $35,000 more over a 67 -month term (5 years 7 months). Potentially, the carts may not be here by May 2 when the golf operations need to have the large number of carts. 3. Reduce the number of carts purchased. Reducing the number of carts could help to reduce the negative fund balance issue. However, the bid proposals were for 34 carts. It would have to be determined if we can reduce this number with the current bid packets and be approved by the apparent lowest bidder. If the bids were rejected, and the bid process reinitiated for a lesser number of carts, the vendors could not provide the carts in time to meet the May 2 golf operation needs. 3 2 W:12011 Info Memos\Golf Cart Bid Award Informational Memo (3- 9- 11)REVISED.doc INFORMATIONAL MEMO March 9, 2011 Bid Award for Purchase of 34 Golf Carts Page 3 RECOMMENDATION The Council is being asked approve the recommendation of a bid award for the purchase of thirty -four (34) gas powered golf carts to Pacific Golf and Turf in the amount of $114,030.00 consider this item at the March 28, 2011 Committee of the Whole meeting and subsequent April 4, 2011 Regular meeting.

Please take the following page of information into consideration when reviewing the bid. While no golf car manufacture carries a full four warranty on their cars, EZGO does have the most coverage of any manufacturer. I have attached a comparison sheet showing the factory warranties of both EZGO and our competitors. The 401cc, 4 cycle, low emission engine in the EZGO TXT car provides 13 horsepower. This extra power allows the EZGO TXT car to run at a lower RPM thus using less fuel and providing a ride with less vibration then other cars. This engine also uses a standard screw on oil filter to protect the engine where one of our competitors uses a splash style oil system with no oil pump or oil filter. Rentals are available before delivery but we must know how long they will be needed before we are able to determine if there will be a charge for them or not. This will be determined from when the order is received if we are the successful bidder. Pacific Golf and Turf Headquarters are located in Ridgefield Washington. With offices in Snohomish, Spokane, Ridgefield, and four additional in Oregon and Hawaii allows Pacific Golf and Turf to stock a large inventory of parts. Based out of Snohomish we employ a full time mobile golf car mechanic to provide you with any of your warranty or service needs. If there are any questions during the discussion period please do not hesitate to give me a call or email.
