trade–in value as requested in bid documents. Staff requested a demonstration model of the cart EZ-GO bid<br />

and compared this to our current Yamaha fleet vehicles. Staff found that this cart is a stiffer ride than the<br />

Yamaha, is louder due to can type air filter system, and tow bar attachments are non-compatible with our<br />

current fleet. Staff, basing its decision on deficiencies of EZ-GO not meeting bid specifications in areas<br />

stated in the summary, and after examination and demonstration of the EZ-GO cart, feel it is a noncompatible<br />

vehicle to the current fleet are recommending not accepting the low bid. Staff recommends<br />

purchasing eight 2012 Yamaha Drive carts from Harris Golf Cars (Sugar Grove) and trade-in on this<br />

purchase seven 2002 and one 2003 Yamaha cars in October 2012. The price of the bid listed in the motion<br />

reflects total price less trade-in value.<br />

Commissioner Whisler moved to approve the low responsible bid meeting all specifications from Harris<br />

Golf Cars of Sugar Grove for (8) 2012 Yamaha Drive golf cars in the amount of $23,703. Commissioner<br />

Nesvacil seconded the motion and it carried.<br />
