The playground equipment X roposals were on display at the Parks and Recreation <br /> Building from June 11 through the 16 . Neighborhood residents and Park Board Members were <br /> invited to review the proposals, make comments, and provide input on the selection of the <br /> projects. <br /> The playground equipment projects were awarded as follows: <br /> Lino Park—Minnesota/Wisconsin Playground, Inc. (Game Time) in the amount of$30,000 <br /> Birch Park—Minnesota/Wisconsin Playground, Inc. (Game Time) in the amount of$30,000 <br /> Shenandoah Park—Flanagan Sales, Inc. (Little Tikes) in the amount of$27,600 <br /> The above vendors offered the City of Lino Lakes the best package of playground equipment. <br /> Evaluations were based on a number of factors including equipment quality and quantity, safety <br /> considerations, aesthetic appeal, and the play experience provided. <br /> I met with area residents on Thursday, June 25 to select playground colors. It is anticipated to <br /> begin installation of the playground equipment sometime in August. We have had sufficient <br /> response for volunteers to assist with the installation of equipment at Birch Park and Shenandoah <br /> Park. However, we have had no response for Lino Park. <br /> sw/parkbrd/Review of New Playground Equipment Bids.doc <br />
