Council approves $114,374 purchase to replace Cherry Farms playground equipment
Summary
Following the surplus declaration and procurement questions, council approved purchase of new playground equipment for Cherry Farms Park for $114,374 after staff clarified the recommended option excluded playground chips and freight costs.
Council considered options in the packet to replace Cherry Farms playground equipment and debated a numeric discrepancy between the staff recommendation and resolution language. A councilor asked staff to clarify the bid components after the recommended Option 1b listed a different total than the motion; staff said the lower resolution amount removed playground chips and installation freight from the purchase price.
After that clarification, a motion was made and approved to purchase Cherry Farms playground equipment for $114,374. Council discussed compliance and inspection standards (CPSI and ASTM) and asked staff to place procurement details in the staff report for future items.
