General Office Supplies

The Town of Lakeside, Texas, has awarded a term contract to Staples Contract & Commercial LLC for general office supplies, specifically procuring HP toner cartridges. The contract, identified as 26023504, was executed on October 27, 2025, with a performance period extending through December 31, 2027. The initial line item consists of one HP 215A Black Standard Yield Toner Cartridge (W2310A), priced at $53.95 per unit, under a tax-exempt purchase order processed through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' Statewide Procurement Division.

The contract is structured as a term agreement, allowing the Town of Lakeside to acquire office supplies as needed during the specified period. The purchase order stipulates a three-day delivery timeframe after receipt of order (ARO), with the first delivery scheduled for October 30, 2025. While the cumulative contract value is listed at fifty-three dollars, this appears to represent the value of the initial line item rather than the total potential contract value. The procurement is conducted under Texas Tax Code, Section 151.309(4), which provides tax exemption for purchases made by political subdivisions.
