This receipt document is associated with the City of St. Petersburg's Request for Quote (RFQ) for a replacement pool cover at Fossil Park Pool located in Pinellas County, Florida. The procurement seeks one new 6,051 square foot L-shaped pool cover with dimensions of 48'X88'+33'X51'+6'X12'+6'X12', designed to protect the pool during its ten-month off-season. The cover must include stainless steel springs spaced every two to three feet to secure it to the decking. The RFQ was released on January 30, 2025, with a deadline for questions on February 4, 2025, and a response deadline of February 10, 2025, at 3:00 pm. The city will award the contract to the lowest responsible and responsive vendor meeting all qualification requirements.

Multiple vendors submitted quotes for the project: Gorman Company at $12,944.00, Lincoln Aquatics at $13,996.18, and Ferris Pools Inc. at $15,532.00. Vendor qualifications require a minimum of three years in business providing similar goods and the ability to obtain required insurance coverage. Insurance requirements include $1 million in commercial general liability, $1 million in commercial automobile liability, and workers' compensation insurance as mandated by Florida law. The replacement is necessitated by the current pool cover being torn and sun-damaged. The contract includes standard municipal provisions covering non-discrimination, environmental purchasing guidelines, and E-Verify requirements, with the city reserving the right to terminate with 30 days' notice and venue in Pinellas County under Florida law.
