Executive Summary
The Public Works Department maintains two City-owned aquatic facilities. Approval of the proposed Resolution would award a multi-year contract for ongoing routine and as-needed pool maintenance, in an amount not to exceed $500,000.00 to Knorr Systems, Inc.
Discussion
The Public Works Department desires to contract with a qualified pool maintenance contractor to provide routine, ongoing maintenance of the pool systems for two City-owned aquatic facilities. Additionally, the contract will provide as needed, on-call emergency and routine maintenance work.
The approval of the proposed agreement would provide Public Works with a reliable service provider to help ensure the pools remain functional and available for public use, recreation, and swimming.
In accordance with Section 2.30.100 of the San Marcos Municipal Code, bids were publicly solicited under PW RFP 25-08 on December 5, 2025, and on January 29, 2026, the City received three bids. The lowest responsive, responsible bidder was Knorr Systems, Inc.
Staff recommends City Council approve the award of a multi-year contract for Pool Maintenance and Repair Services to Knorr Systems, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $500,000.00 and authorize the City Manager to negotiate, finalize, and execute the contract and all related documents
Environmental Review
The activity performed under this action is not a “project” as defined under Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines and is therefore not subject to environmental review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15060(c)(3).
Fiscal Impact
The total contract amount is not to exceed $500,000. Funding for services has been budgeted in the Facilities Maintenance operating budget and is funded with Measure Q Fund (606). The contract award does not commit the City to any future expenditure.
