Agenda Item

Discuss, consider, and take appropriate action on approving agreement with Hill's Pet Nutrition Sales, Inc. whereby Hill’s provides and/or makes available select Hill’s® brand pet food, under specified terms, to support the operations of the Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter, exempting this purchase from the competitive bidding requirements per Texas Local Government Code Section 262.024.(a)(8), and authorizing execution of the agreement.

Background

This is a long-standing annual agreement between the Animal Shelter and Hill's for food for animals. Hill's makes the pet food available at a deeply discounted rate in exchange for exclusive provision of Hill's product to shelter animals.  Due to the unique elements of this agreement, it is not possible to obtain competitive quotes from other suppliers.  The budget line for pet food is 01.0545.0545.004968 - Animal Shelter.  Annual spend is approximately $18,000 to $19,000.
