MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor and City Council
C LI' IA EN
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
From: Jamie Polley, Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Director
Meeting Date: September 20, 2011
Subject: Approve Payment for Community Center Carpeting
INTRODUCTION
The City Council is asked to authorize the payment of $18,826.12 for the installation of
the Teen Center carpet.
DISCUSSION
In 2010 staff presented the City Council with the 2011 Community Center operating
budget which included $20,000 for the replacement of the teen center carpet. The
Finance Director recommended that this project be included in the operation budget.
City Council approved the operation budget presented for 2011 including the $20,000.
Staff coordinated the teen center carpet replacement in the summer of 2011. Staff
attempted to receive multiple quotes for the carpet replacement however the desire to
remain with carpet tile for maintenance purposes limited the number of options and staff
only received one quote from Sonus Interiors in the amount of $18,826.12. This amount
exceeds $15,000 in which adopted policy states that any expenditure in excess of
$15,000 requires prior City Council approval. Staff is now aware that any expenditure in
excess of $15,000, even if included in the operating budget, should be brought to the
City Council for prior approval.
RELATIONSHIP TO VISION

REQUESTED ACTION
If Council' concurs, authorize the payment of $18,826.12 to Sonus Interiors for the
replacement of the teen center carpet.
