Summary:
The City has been using Grapevine Designs for several purchases this year to purchase jackets for all city employees and promotional items for public engagement events. Total aggregate spending with this vendor has exceeded $50,000 in 2024 and needs council authorization. After discovering this, our procurement team worked with Grapevine Designs to establish a two-year price agreement to ensure competitive and consistent pricing over the next two years to plan for future purchases.
Staff recommends approval of the price agreement and an authorization to spend up to $100,000 annually to account for the total spend across all city departments.

Financial Impact:
Estimated annual expenditures are up to $100,000 annually. These will be paid out of department budgets as clothing items and promotional materials are purchased.
