Board to post survey, staff: demo in-house and 90-day construction estimate if approved
Summary
Staff will post an online survey of playground renderings and prices, plan to demo the old playground in-house to save $6,000–$12,000, and said construction could take about 90 days once scheduled, likely this summer or early fall if approved.
Staff told the board it will post the vendor renderings and prices in an online survey and try to capture resident addresses so nearby residents’ feedback can be weighted when the board reviews results in May. "After the board meeting, staff will post an online survey where the community can provide input on which playground rendering they liked," staff said.
On cost-control measures, staff said the city intends to demo the existing playground using field staff rather than pay external demo bids. Staff quoted demolition estimates in the range of $6,000–$12,000 and said that in-house work and existing contracts for dumpsters or equipment could lower expenses. Staff estimated construction could take roughly 90 days once work starts but noted vendor scheduling and material availability will drive the actual timeline.
