Title:
Adopt Resolution #25-211 Approving the Purchase of the PreFab Restroom and Support Building for the Waterfront Park Improvement Project
Purpose/Background:
At work session on August 12th, 2025 Council received a progress report on the water play project at The Waterfront—which included information on the prefab restroom building and the approximate 7-month production and delivery timeline. In summary, in order to have the building on site +/- April for prime contractor assembly and to begin incorporating electrical equipment and mechanical and other site improvements, the city would need to order the building no later than September 2025. Thus, the purpose of this case is to formally authorize this pre-bid order, which was supported unanimously by consensus on August 12th.
Time Frame/Observations/Alternatives:
The restroom and park support building as described at the work session was to cost $274k. However, in August 2025 a new statutory requirement went into effect requiring certain buildings to now require adult changing facilities—this has increased the cost of the prefab building to $300k, and staff is recommending an additional $5k contingency in the event that additional items or fixtures are required that are not included in the revised Purchase Agreement (the second attachment).
Staff will be meeting with the City Attorney to ascertain if the $26k in building 'upgrades' are required with certainty to accommodate all that is necessary for the adult changing room that would be built into the previous storage area. Nonetheless, this case is prepared such that the restroom and support building may be ordered to get it into the production queue with the adult changing room ($300k + $5k contingency, rounded to $305,000 that this case authorizes). If it is determined that the upgrades are not required, the lessor cost mentioned above would only be required.

Funding Source:
All funding for the prefab restroom and park support building to be ordered in 2025 and delivered in 2026 would be from the Park Trust Fund, which has a present balance in excess of $7M.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends Council authorize the purchase of the building as outlined above by Adopting Resolution #25-211, and direct staff to sign and execute the attached Purchase Agreement.
Outcome/Action:
Motion to Adopt Resolution #25-211 approving the purchase of the prefab restroom and support building for The Waterfront park improvement project.
