PURCHASE SHELTER BUILDING FOR RONDEAU PARK The Parks & Rec/Community Services Director stated that from the direction of the City Council to proceed with improvements at Rondeau Park in 2022, staff continues to work on planned upgrades. He explained that the Park System Master Plan identified the addition of a small picnic shelter with picnic tables and a small barbeque grill for Rondeau Park. He reported that staff surveyed the neighborhood for feedback on which type of shelter was preferred at the park and gave two options. He stated the first option was a square -style shelter, and the second option was a hexagonal -style shelter, both styles of shelters are similar in cost. He reported that the survey results showed a preference for a hexagon -style shelter, and staff reached out to two vendors for pricing on a 20-foot open-air shelter. The Parks & Rec/Community Services Director stated that with the long lead times and potential price increases in supplies next year, staff wants to order the shelter as soon as possible. He noted that the Parks & Recreation Commission agreed with the Master Plan to add an open-air picnic shelter at Rondeau Park. Since this park is within Qualified Census Tract 421.01, staff is proposing to use American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funds for the purchase of playground equipment.
