Forest Park URA approves relocation of outdoor gun-range berm; project exceeds developer escrow by roughly $20,000
Summary
The URA approved moving forward with contractor work to relocate the outdoor shooting range dirt berm and install rotating targets. Bids totaled about $170,000; developer escrow is $150,000, and the URA will cover the overage per the contract terms.
The Forest Park URA voted to proceed with relocating the outdoor gun-range dirt berm and installing rotating targets after staff said the combined vendor quotes exceeded the developer-provided escrow by roughly $20,000.
Talisa Adams, procurement manager for the city of Forest Park, told the board that the relocation is required because a developer’s project will occupy land currently adjacent to where the police department’s firing range is sited. The developer set aside $150,000 in escrow to cover the relocation work, Adams said.
