AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET
DEPARTMENT: Procurement
ACM: Christine Taylor
DATE: February 18, 2025
SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
rejecting any and all competitive proposals under RFP 8640 for Prescription Safety Glasses; and providing
an effective date (RFP 8640).
INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
The City of Denton requested proposals for prescription safety glasses and goggles, for the departments of
Solid Waste, Parks and Recreation, Denton Municipal Electric, Streets, Water Utilities, Technology
Services, and other departments whose employees, based on job descriptions, require prescription safety
glasses. The services included all equipment, labor, and materials to perform all operations in connection
with the manufacturing and repair of prescription safety glasses/goggles.
A single bid was received, and staff expressed concerns about the limited response, considering the
widespread need for this service across all municipalities. As a result, staff is reevaluating options for
providing these safety items.
In accordance with the Local Government Code 252.043, the City Council may reject any and all bids.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends rejection of all proposals for RFP 8640 Prescription Safety Glasses.
