A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING
THE SOLE -SOURCE PURCHASE OF AN INDEPENDENT POOL
LIFT FOR THE HUTCHINS STREET SQUARE POOL, AND
FURTHER APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR THIS PROJECT
WHEREAS, Lodi Municipal Code §3.20.070 authorizes dispensing with bids for
purchases of supplies, services, or equipment when it is in the best interest of the City to
do so; and
WHEREAS, the current pool lift has reached the end of its working life -span, and
calcium deposits and corrosion have damaged the lift's seals reducing capacity and
causing a binding in the lift's action; and
WHEREAS, the existing lift is undersized for large clients, does not offer padded
surfaces, and does not contain people from falling out of the lift; and
WHEREAS, the new pool lift will have double the capacity (700 lbs.), padded arm
rests, a trapeze overhead for the wheelchair bound, and does not reside in the pool,
saving space and increasing the life -span since the apparatus would not be susceptible
to rust and corrosion elements; and
WHEREAS, this purchase would allow replacement of the existing pool lift with a
unit that meets current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards and has an
increased weight capacity in order to provide safe, easy use, and reliable lift service to
handicapped clients using the Hutchins Street Square pool; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends replacing the existing pool lift through the sole -
source purchase from Morris Independent Lift!, of Bay City, Michigan, in the total amount
of $12,000.00.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Lodi
does hereby approve the sole -source purchase of the independent pool lift for the
Hutchins Street Square Pool from Morris Independent Lift!, of Bay City, Michigan, in the
total amount of $12,000.00; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that funds in the amount of $12,000.00 be
appropriated from 2001 Community Development Block Grant funds for this project.
