Title
Sportsplex Scoreboard - Bid Award
History
The current scoreboards at the Sportsplex are in need of replacement. Both are nearly ten years old and have undergone multiple repairs with mixed success. Staff has been seeking sponsorships for the two scoreboards and has secured one $5,000 sponsorship check from Athletex Sports and Occupational Physical Therapy toward replacing one scoreboard at the Sportsplex. With this donation Athletex Sports and Occupational Physical Therapy will hold a five year sponsorship which will include an 18” x 8’ sponsor panel that will be affixed to the scoreboard. The department is pleased to secure this first sponsorship and will continue to work with local businesses to encourage future sponsorship opportunities to offset the cost of replacing a scoreboard to be replaced in FY12.
Attached, please find three quotes for Daktronics BB-2101-13 scoreboard. The lowest quote is from Sievert Electric at an installed cost of $6,305. The purchase includes (1) sponsor panel, (2) corner logo panels, border striping, wireless controller, shipping and installation by union electricians.
On December 5, 2011, this item was reviewed and approved by the Parks and Recreation Committee and referred to the Board for approval.
Financial Impact
The funds are available in the FY11 account 283-4007-451-6045 in the amount of $6,305.00.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve accepting the quote from Sievert Electric at an installed cost not to exceed $6,305.00.
