Resolution 8966, Approving Installation Costs for the Splash Pad at City <br />Hall Park. <br />Public Works Director Peterson requested the Council approve the installation costs for the <br />splash pad at City Hall Park. He noted this included both electrical work and the plumbing of <br />water and sanitary sewer lines to the splash pad. He discussed the proposed expense for the <br />concrete, plumbing, electrical and installation work with the Council and recommended <br />approval. It was noted the Public Works Department would be assisting with the installation of <br />the water and sewer lines. <br />Mayor Mueller commented this project came in $70,000 less than the Council had budgeted. <br />Public Works Director Peterson reported this was the case. <br />Mayor Mueller questioned if the splash pad would be recycling and cleaning the water it uses or <br />if it would be using fresh water. Public Works Director Peterson reported this would be a <br />recirculating water system. He provided further comment on the potential of renting out cabanas <br />or covered structures adjacent to the splash pad for birthday parties or other family events. <br />Mayor Mueller asked if the ballfield would be impacted by the splash pad. Public Works <br />Director Peterson explained the ballfield would have to be flipped in order to make room for the <br />splash pad. He noted this work would be completed by Public Works staff. <br />Mayor Mueller inquired when the splash pad would be installed. Public Works Director <br />Peterson indicated once approved staff would contact all of the contractors and would be holding <br />a preconstruction meeting. He stated it was the City’s intention to have this project completed by <br />August. <br />Mayor Mueller indicated she would love to see this project completed in time for Festival in the <br />Park. Public Works Director Peterson stated this was staff’s goal. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Gunn/Meehlhause.
