Trees/landscape = $2,000 <br />Contingency = $9,000 <br />Draft total $71,000 <br />In addition to the above, staff is researching options for a 'rock climbing' feature —while potentially a significant <br />cost, if incorporated within the playground renovation project, the city would be delivering on each and every <br />element identified as desired by the neighborhood. Note also, an updated sign for Ford Brook Park may also have <br />merit, and may be funded within the contingency proposed. <br />Also, the removal and restoration of the existing playground equipment, pea gravel and plastic border are not <br />included within the draft budget —but assumed to accommodated by Ramsey forces or as other in kind services. <br />Likewise, disposal costs if any, are not identified. <br />Funding Source: <br />The primary funding source is the Lawful Gambling Improvement Fund. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff is recommending this playground renovation project may be advanced to City Council for approval as <br />outlined above, together with other aspects as may be identified at the meeting. The sample motion below is shown <br />as a blank amount, if the Commission feels that the playground renovation is adequate as shown above, the <br />not -to -exceed amount should be adequate at $71,000. If a rock climbing feature would be added, the not -to -exceed <br />amount should be $91,000. <br />Note, a moderately sized (playground scale) rock climbing feature would add an element of uniqueness (a thematic <br />feature) to the neighborhood park, which has been a consideration in previous playground projects. (Staff will have <br />an example of the scale referenced available at the meeting.) <br />Action: <br />Motion to recommend the 2020 Ford Brook Park playground renovation at a not -to -exceed amount of <br />Proposed play components <br />Mini Shelter with table <br />Image, Mini shelter <br />Schematic layout <br />Existing conditons <br />Listening Session invitation <br />Comparables (w/o installation) <br />CIP page <br />Attachments <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Grant Riemer Grant Riemer 02/07/2020 09:51 AM <br />Form Started By: Mark Riverblood Started On: 02/06/2020 11:47 AM <br />Final Approval Date: 02/07/2020 <br />
