SUMMARY
DATE: October 2, 2018
TO: Ronald L. Olson, City Manager
FROM: Brett Williams, Executive Director of Community Services
SUBJECT: Fitness Equipment Purchase for Lions Club Park Senior Center
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The City of Killeen opened the Lions Club Park Senior Center in May of 2008. The facility is designed to provide recreational opportunities for area senior citizens ages 55 and older. The 14,000 square foot facility includes a fitness room. The fitness room provides senior citizens with access to a variety of equipment to improve and maintain their level of fitness.
A broken water line resulted in the Lions Club Park Senior Center flooding on Saturday, July 7, 2018. The flooding within the facility damaged the fitness equipment located in the Senior Center. The overall damage to the Senior Center exceeded the City’s insurance deductible. As a result, the City has submitted the required paperwork to receive funding to replace the damaged equipment and restore the facility to its status prior to the flood.
Community Services seeks to purchase replacement equipment for the Lions Club Park Senior Center. Staff proposes to procure equipment that provides the same functionality as the damaged equipment. The damaged equipment was the original equipment placed in the facility in 2008. The proposed replacement equipment will be slightly different; however, it will still provide the same functionality for patrons.
Staff seeks authorization to purchase the following pieces of equipment for the Lions Club Park Senior Center:
· TRM 835-S, qty. 2 - Treadmill
· EFX 833-S, qty. 1 - Elliptical Crosstrainer
