A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ARLINGTON TO WAIVE BIDDING REQUIREMENTS FOR THE
PURCHASE, STARTUP, COMMISSIONING AND TRAINING OF ROTORK CONTROLS PRODUCTS FOR
USE BY THE CITY OF ARLINGTON UTILITY DEPARTMENT
WHEREAS, the City of Arlington Utility Department processes water and treats
wastewater for all of its customers; and
WHEREAS, to maintain the consistency of parts, ensure the continued operation of the
utilities, and avoid the cost associated with repairs to the system that may occur using non
genuine original Rotork controls, a supplier of Rotork parts is required; and
WHEREAS, Beaver Equipment is the sole source representative authorized to supply
Rotork Controls; and
WHEREAS, RCW 35.23.352(9) permits the waiving of bidding requirements for the
purchase of materials which are clearly and legitimately limited to a single source of supply or
services which are subject to special market conditions;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Arlington, as
follows:
Section 1: The City Council of the City of Arlington finds that replacing controls or
replacement parts with Rotork Controls products and services clearly limits the City of
Arlington to a single source of supply,justifying the waiver of competitive bidding
requirements.
Section 2: The City Council of the City of Arlington hereby waives the bidding requirements
for the purchase of Rotork Controls products and services for use by the City of Arlington
Utility Department and authorizes sole source purchasing from Beaver Equipment LLC.
Section 3: This resolution will be effective for three (3) years from the date of adoption.
APPROVED by the Mayor and City Council of the City of Arlington this 16th day of September
