Forks council authorizes contract for city park facilities master plan
Summary
The council authorized the mayor and staff to enter into a contract with Beckwith Consulting Group to prepare a City Park Facilities Master Plan after an RFP process; contract amount was not specified in the minutes.
The Forks City Council on Jan. 26 authorized the mayor and staff to enter into a contract with Beckwith Consulting Group to develop a City Park Facilities Master Plan.
Why it matters: A city park master plan sets priorities for recreation investments and capital projects and guides spending and timing for future park projects scheduled to begin in 2027–2028.
Attorney/Planner Fleck summarized the Request for Proposals process used to solicit vendors and recommended Beckwith Consulting Group. Council voted to authorize the Mayor and staff to enter into the contract (motion by Council Member Soha; second by Patel; motion carried). The minutes do not list the contract value or a detailed project timeline.
Council Member Pearson said she was excited about the new park master plan and associated projects tentatively scheduled for 2027 or 2028. Fleck later noted staff will return with a suggestion for award of the Industrial Park insulation project at the next meeting.
What’s next: Staff will finalize contract terms with Beckwith Consulting Group and is expected to present more detailed schedules and scope information at a future meeting; the minutes do not include a procurement amount.
