Board identifies Cunningham Recreation as low, best proposal for Hall Park fitness equipment
Summary
Park staff reported five bids for fitness equipment at Hall Park and said the low and best proposal was for $138,443 from Cunningham Recreation; staff discussed equipment features, shade-structure additions and the next steps for general contractor bidding.
The Park and Tree Board reviewed bids for Hall Park fitness equipment and staff said the low and best proposal came from Cunningham Recreation for $138,443. Chair (S2) told the board they opened five proposals and that a late-delivered bid could not be accepted under the bid rules.
Ryan, a park staff member, described the package as a mix of multi-user and individual fitness units that include shoulder-mobility and balance-focused equipment. "There's a multi unit that, like, I think 6 people can be using at a time," Ryan said, adding that the board could add shade structures later as a capital improvement. Staff said they will prepare a contractor bid advertisement and follow the public-advertising schedule before construction work begins.
Why it matters: the identified low/best bid establishes the anticipated equipment cost and helps staff plan the procurement timeline, advertising and any needed capital outlay for complementary shade structures. The board did not take a final contract award vote at this meeting; staff described the next steps for advertising and review by the city approvals office.
