DISCUSSION
TO: Mayor and City Council and Parks Commission
FROM: Kristina Handt, City Administrator
AGENDA ITEM: Lions Park Proposals
BACKGROUND:
At the May 17th Council meeting, there was discussion of amending the RFP for Lions Park to include the
removal of the parks storage building. This amendment failed. Staff therefore issued the RFP on May 18,
2016 with previously discussed improvements from November 2015.
ISSUE FOR DISCUSSION:
What are the next steps?
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS:
Proposals were due to the City on June 15, 2016. At that time we received proposals from five firms.
Only one firm, Anderson Engineering, had submitted a complete proposal that included cost estimates for
the construction phase. Since that time, staff was able to obtain complete proposals from two additional
firms. A summary of the proposals submitted is provided in the chart below.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The 2016-2020 CIP included $40,000 for grading the field at Lions Park. The Parks Commission 2017-
2021 CIP recommendations include $150,000 for improvements to Lions Park. The total request
therefore was $190,000.
The Park Dedication Fund has a projected balance of $845,000 by the end of 2016, assuming Tablyn
improvements are completed and the grading at Lion’s field is done.
OPTIONS:
If Council and Commission agree to move forward with a scaled down version to stay within budget
target, staff should be directed to place this on the next Council agenda for formal action to select a firm
to begin working on gathering more input and developing a more detailed concept plan.
Also, Council and Commission could direct staff to move ahead with just the grading of the field as
provided for the 2016-2020 CIP.
Lastly, a decision could be made to make no improvements to Lions Park.
