Town moves to negotiate GMP with Compound Inc. for ADA playground design and build
Summary
The playground committee recommended Compound Inc. to design and build an ADA‑accessible playground at Rec Park; the board directed staff to negotiate a guaranteed maximum price and noted the project is about $43,000 short of its $1.6 million target.
Town staff reported four responses to an RFQ for design and build services for an ADA‑accessible playground at Rec Park. The playground committee evaluated submissions and recommended Compound Inc., selected for the company's experience and ability to design, manufacture and install its product and for its wooden materials. Staff asked the board to direct staff to negotiate a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) with Compound Inc.
A commissioner noted the original budget goal of $1.6 million and said the project was about $43,000 short at the time of the meeting; he said that shortfall will be considered during GMP negotiations. The board moved, seconded and approved directing staff to negotiate a GMP with Compound Inc.
Ending: Staff will proceed to negotiate the GMP; future board action will be required to approve the contract and any budget adjustments.
