Item No: 9F Meeting Date: November 27, 2017 Type of Business: CB M6L-NDiTSVVfE-W Administrator Review:. -C-3 City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Don Peterson, Director of Public Works Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8864 Approving Fred Kolkman Tennis & Sport Surfaces Inc. to prepare plans and specifications for total reconstruction of the tennis courts at Greenfield and Groveland Parks Background/Discussion: The Parks, Recreation and Forestry Commission along with Public Works Staff have been evaluating options for the tennis court surfaces at Greenfield and Groveland Parks. These playing surfaces vary in age and condition and multiple options were considered for improvements. Ideas included total reconstruction, resurfacing or replacing with a tile system. After looking into the options the Commission felt it would be best to hire a consultant to evaluate the playing surface and bring forward recommendations. Fred Kolkman of Fred Kolkman Tennis & Sport Surfaces LLC was contacted to perform the evaluations and provide the commission a report for options for all the playing surfaces in the parks. After receiving the report the Commission concluded that both Greenfield and Groveland Tennis Courts are beyond the resurfacing phase and would require total reconstruction. At the May, 2017 Parks, Recreation and Forestry Commission Meeting the Commission approved having Fred Kolkman prepare plans and specifications for total reconstruction of both the tennis courts at Greenfield and Groveland Parks. Fred Kolkman provided a proposal for putting the plans and specifications together for a cost of $6,500.00. Funding for this project would come from the Park Dedication fund account 451-4470-7050, with a budget of $60,000.00 to reconstruct the tennis courts at Greenfield and Groveland Parks in 2018. Recommendation: Staff along with the Parks, Recreation and Forestry Commission, is recommending the City Council approve the proposal from Fred Kolkman Tennis and Sport Surfaces, LLC of Grafton WI to prepare plans and specifications for a total reconstruction of the tennis courts at Greenfield and Groveland Parks in the amount of $6,500.00, to be funded from the Park Dedication, 451-4470- 7050.
