One new, never used, 2024 model year or newer Yamaha golf cart

The Erie County jurisdiction in Ohio is seeking to procure one new, never used 2024 model year or newer Yamaha golf cart through the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife. The procurement specification requires a specific configuration including four-passenger seating capacity, street legal capabilities with mandatory safety features such as headlamps, taillights, brake lights, turn signals, and a horn. Additional required features include a fold-down windshield, a roof/canopy covering forward-facing seats, and rear-facing seats that can fold down to create a flat cargo area. The golf cart must be gasoline-powered, brand new, and include a factory warranty. The solicitation was posted on July 14, 2025, with responses due by July 29, 2025. Delivery requirements stipulate that if the selling dealer is located more than 125 highway miles from the Sandusky, OH address (305 East Shoreline Drive), the bidder must include delivery to that location.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation were explicitly mentioned in the procurement documents. The ODNR Division of Wildlife will handle vehicle registration, with potential titling of the vehicle to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources at 2045 Morse Road in Columbus. While the specification document did not include specific pricing details or budget allocations, the procurement appears to be a targeted acquisition for a specialized utility vehicle to support wildlife division operations. No incumbent vendors or existing technology integration requirements were identified in the available documentation. The procurement seems focused on acquiring a specific, functionally-configured golf cart to meet the operational needs of the Division of Wildlife, with an emphasis on new equipment, street legal capabilities, and flexible utility for various environmental and wildlife management tasks.
