design will remove the old base material and will process the subgrade and base material to new

design criteria established by the FAA. The pavement section will be designed for current and future

weight loads in order to serve runway 4/22.

In order to receive this funding, the grant application had to be executed and returned to the FAA as

quickly as possible. The grant was offered to the City of Tyler on September 14, 2018 with the

requirement it be executed by September 18, 2018. Airport staff is requesting City Council

The FAA and Airport staff have worked to plan future projects for the airport in accordance with

the Airport Master Plan. A recommendation in the Master Plan and recent runway pavement

assessments was to reconstruct Runway 4/22 and relocate the Instrument Landing System (ILS)

and related facilities from runway 13/31 to runway 4/22. Relocation will provide an ILS-equipped

runway that will accommodate operations by larger aircraft on a regular basis, during Instrument

Flight Rules (IFR) conditions. Relocating the ILS to the longest runway on the airport with the

most conducive wind coverage in inclement weather conditions will meet performance safety

standards for the newest commercial fleet.

In order to receive this funding, the grant application had to be executed and returned to the FAA

as quickly as possible. The grant was offered on September 14, 2018. Airport staff is requesting

The City of Tyler advertised a Notice Requesting Quotations for the 2018 Taxiway Charlie/Foxtrot

Rehabilitation Construction Project in the local newspaper, sent notifications to contractors and

CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION

Agenda Number: C-A-1

Date: October 3, 2018

Subject: Request that the City Council consider adoption of an updated

Resolution approving the continued participation in the Texas

State Department of Information Resources (DIR) Program and

General Services Commission Local Government Purchasing

Program. Also, request that the City Council consider authorizing

the City Manager renew several annual leases and to utilize various

vendors as sole source for parts and service for technology

equipment including computers, software, and telephones for FY

2018-2019.

Page: 1 of 2

Item Reference: Participation in State Catalogue Purchasing Program and annual

leasing of technology equipment; Tyler City Code Sec. 2-6.

As an initial part of the City of Tyler Blueprint process, a three-year cycle of leasing and

replacement of computers was implemented. The most efficient way to implement this was to

participate in a lease and purchase program from the State Catalogue Purchasing Program. That

program has since been changed and is now called the State Department of Information

Resources (DIR) Program. State law, in Texas Local Government Code Chapter 271, Subchapter

D State Cooperation in Local Purchasing Programs, authorizes the State to conduct a bid process

and create a list of vendors and products available without further bidding if the City passes a

Resolution and designates an official to act on the City’s behalf. This enables the City to take

advantage of vendors who have the most up-to-date equipment at the best price.

Although the City Council has authorized participation in this program in the past, the previously

adopted resolution contains outdated provisions. At this time, it is necessary to update and renew

that authorization. The attached Resolution approves participation for FY 2018-2019 and future

years.

In addition to seeking the City Council’s approval for continued participation in the lease

purchase program, authorization is also requested to renew annual maintenance, equipment

leases and upgrades of equipment and software. The expenditure list with estimated dollars is

attached for your review. Tyler City Code Sect. 2-6.b. requires all expenditures over $25,000 be

approved by City Council. Orders will be placed on an as-needed basis.
