BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS COUNTY OF KITTITAS STATE OF WASHINGTON RESOLUTION NO. 2016- ____ SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE WHEREAS: The Kittitas County Event Center is completing necessary repairs to improve the quality and safety of the arena; and WHEREAS: The arena requires new footing; and WHEREAS: Rocks and debris must be removed from the arena to ensure a proper footing; and WHEREAS: Due to the geography of the arena, rocks are a persistent problem; and WHEREAS: Rocks and debris will continuously need to be filtered from the arena and Bloom Pavilion after renovations are complete in order to maintain the facilities and ensure their safety; and WHEREAS: Cherrington Enterprises Inc., manufactures rock picking and sifting equipment including, the Cherrington Model 440XL Beach Cleaner/Screener that incorporates the unique lift and sift method of screening which uses a non-rotating elliptical oscillation screening system capable of removing rocks as small as half an inch; and WHEREAS: Unlike other rock pickers, this equipment does not utilize tines which can be problematic for use in arenas because they can break off and pose a safety hazard to the animals and riders, and diminish the effectiveness of the rock removal process; and WHEREAS: Unlike other devices, this equipment does not utilize a moving screen which greatly limits the wear and tear and eventual failure of the screen that is costly to replace; and WHEREAS: Cherrington Enterprises Inc. has certified that they are the sole source for this unique beneficial and efficient method of screening; WHEREAS: RCW 39.04.280(1)(a) authorizes the practice of purchasing from a single source when the purchase is clearly and legitimately limited to a single source or supply; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That the competitive bidding process for a contract for purchase is hereby waived pursuant to RCW 39.04.280(1)(a), and Kittitas County Event Center is authorized to take such steps as are necessary to properly purchase the Cherrington Model 440XL Beach Cleaner/Screener to accomplish the required and continuous rock and debris removal from the arena and Bloom Pavilion.
