Item Summary
In 2024, the Parks and Recreation Department received $428,848 of additional American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding for its park playgrounds project. The department manages a total of 57 playgrounds throughout the City. Staff evaluated each playground through a Playground Safety Maintenance Checklist to determine which playgrounds were in critical need of replacement. Based on the rankings, staff concluded that the playground located at Mackenzie Park South was in most need of replacement.
Staff contacted Kraftsman Commercial Playgrounds & Waterparks to provide quotes to replace the play equipment, stabilize and install site drainage systems, and install fall zone materials.
Through BuyBoard Contract 679-22, Purchase Order 90500061 for $469,858.46, will cover the following services at Mackenzie Park:
