Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the City Manager to issue a Purchase Order to The Playwell Group, Inc. for the purchase of shade structures for Old Settlers Park at Palm Valley.
Body
This item will authorize the City to issue a purchase order to the PlayWell Group for purchase of shade structures for the Multipurpose Field Complex at Old Settlers Park. By purchasing the shade structures through the BuyBoard Contract rather than including this item in the competitive sealed proposal process, the City will save almost $50,000 off of the total purchase price due to contractor markups and equipment price increases at the first of the year. These shade structures will be integrated in to the complex to provide spectator shade for a better experience while visiting the complex. Installation of the shade structures will be included in the general contractor's scope of work.
The Multipurpose Field Complex Project includes five (5) multipurpose fields, parking, sports lighting, restroom/concessions building, spectator amenities, playground, etc. The Soccer Complex Project will include renovation of the existing five (5) soccer fields to create two (2) multipurpose fields and three (3) individual soccer fields (1 full, 2 youth), replacement of the existing topsoil and sod, and ADA upgrades to the complex. The Multipurpose Field Complex will be completed first which will allow the City to move local leagues to the Multipurpose Complex while construction on the Soccer Complex occurs. This project is in line with numerous objectives within Strategic Plan Goals 1-High Value Services and Goal 4-Sports Capital for Tourism.
