RFP-6649 - Purchase of Golf Cars for Pierce Lake Golf Course and Park

Summary of Specifications:
The purpose of this Request for Proposal (RFP) is to obtain bids to purchase golf cars for use at Pierce Lake Golf Course and Park. Pierce Lake Golf Course (PLGC), located at 1175 South Main Street, Chelsea, MI, is owned and operated by the Washtenaw County Parks and Recreation Commission. In the past, PLGC has leased a fleet of 27 gasoline cars, 50 electric cars, two utility vehicles and 1 beverage car. After review, the decision has been made to change from this practice. The new fleet, to be purchased based upon the bid process announced in this RFP, will consist of 65 electric golf cars, 2 gasoline powered utility cars and 1 gasoline powered beverage car. Detailed specifications for the desired equipment are included in Section III, B of this RFP. The current golf car lease expires prior to the end of 2011 and all equipment will be removed from the course. The selected vendor will provide the new fleet of golf cars, utility vehicles and beverage car no later than March 1, 2012. This will give PLGC ample time to get the cars ready for the 2012 golf season.
