Discuss, consider, and take appropriate action on awarding the contract for construction of Williamson County River Ranch County Park Residence to Glazier Homes, LLC, in the amount of $382,171.75, per the lowest and best quote received, pursuant to Texas Local Gov't Code, Section 262.0225(d) and section 262.0245, and authorizing execution of the agreement.

A formal solicitation was completed under RFCSP # 1708-180 and no responsive proposals were received. The only response received did not include an actual proposal only pricing. Texas Local Government Code Section 262.0225(d) and 262.045 allow the Purchasing Agent to recommend procedures for obtaining necessary items where no responsive proposals are received. A recommendation was made to the Parks Department to solicit quotes and negotiate a contract with a qualified vendor. Quotes were obtained and a contract was negotiated. The responses were evaluated by Parks in the same manner as if they had been received during the initial RFCSP process. Based upon the evaluation and negotiation of the contract received the recommendation is made to award to Glazier Homes as the overall lowest and best quote for the needed Residence at River Ranch County Park. This project is to be funded from preapproved funds in the amount of $150,000 in P478 with the remainder of the project being funded from Parks Bond P315.
