Agenda Item Brief:

Consideration and possible award of the purchase of a Burke play structure for Recreation Park, to Buell Recreation; in the amount of $64,049.00 The purchase of this play equipment will replace the existing deteriorated structures at Recreation Park.  Staff recommends approval.



Background:

The current play equipment at Recreation Park is fifteen years old.  Based on review by City Staff, the structures require replacement to allow for safe play.  The equipment for the park being purchased is for ages 2 and up.  The Burke Play equipment is standard play equipment that the City purchases and installs at neighborhood parks.  The Funding for this equipment is coming from Park Construction Tax District 1 Fund 1406.



Analysis:

Buell is the supplier of Burke play equipment on the west coast; we are using a Carson City Joiner bid therefore only one quote was obtained to purchase this equipment.  The total cost of all pieces of play equipment is $64,049.00.  A copy of the quote, pieces of equipment being purchased, are attached for the Councils review.



Alternatives:

1. City Council could approve the purchase of a Burke play structure for Recreation Park, to Buell Recreation as outlined by Staff.

2. City Council could reject purchase of a Burke play structure for Recreation Park, to Buell Recreation, and provide direction to the City Manager.



Recommended Motion:

“I move to award the purchase of a Burke play structure for Recreation Park, to Buell Recreation in the amount of $64,049.00.”
