REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL <br />PLAY STRUCTURE FOR PELTZER PARK <br /> <br />Dear Playground Professional: <br /> <br />The City of Ramsey intends to purchase a wood play structure for Peltzer Park early in 1998. <br />The purpose of this correspondence is to solicit proposals from your company. Ramsey City <br />Council and the Park and Recreation Commission have allocated $22,000 for the play structure <br />itself. This is a not-to-exceed amount including delivery and tax. The budget for other <br />improvements, such as installation, is separate from the figure above. (The City has established a <br />not-to-exceed amount of $4,000 for the play equipment installation and intends on contracting <br />installation of the equipment purchased.) <br /> <br />Enclosed is an expected time table for the playground project. Vendors should specify if the <br />general time frame shown is not reasonable as the purchase order issued will identify a mutually <br />agreed upon completion date, the purchase order will specify liquidated damages by day after <br />that date. <br /> <br />Quotations are due at Ramsey City Hall by 5:00 p.m. on April 8, 1998. <br /> <br />In addition to the task by time table, a park plan is enclosed. The plan shows the existing play <br />equipment bordered by two tiers of treated timbers. Vendors should specifically indicate how <br />much, if any, of the timbers wilt need to be realigned for the new structure. The amount of pea <br />gravel that will need to be temporarily relocated (if any) is also a consideration. The <br />approximate configuration and dimensions of the timbers is shown on the park plan and separate <br />sheet. The Park Survey is also included for your information. <br /> <br />Only one proposal should be submitted from each vendor, with the following exception: <br /> <br />An alternate playground proposal may be submitted if it contains a track ride. The alternate play <br />structure should be similar to the primary proposal so as to evaluate the play value to dollar <br />relationship of inclusion of a track ride. The primary play structure proposal must not contain a <br />track ride. <br /> <br />The following considerations should guide the development of your proposal and may be used as <br />a checklist for ranking proposals received. The City reserves the fight to deviate from the <br />suggestions in any way. <br /> <br />The play structure should include: <br /> · Tunnel(s) <br /> Slides <br /> Bridge(s) <br /> Climbers <br /> <br /> <br />
