MEMO TO: Mounds View Parks and Recreation Commission <br /> FROM: Staff <br /> 4111 <br /> DATE: June 26 , 1985 <br /> RE: Groveland Park playground equipment <br /> Enclosed is a staff memorandum that was submitted to the Mounds <br /> View City Council for their review at their regularly scheduled <br /> June 10 , 1985 City Council meeting. As can be noted, the recom- <br /> mendation was to purchase the Durascape Plus playground equipment <br /> from Gametime in an amount not to exceed $15,000 based on the <br /> formal bid proposals. The funding was based on the $5,000 Neigh- <br />, <br /> borhood <br /> eigh- <br /> borhood Park Planning Fund Grant, $7 , 500 from the Groveland Park <br /> Foundation and $2, 500 from the MSA Bond Fund. Staff has also <br /> included a copy of the schematic of the proposed playground <br /> equipment which gives a better feel for the specific equipment <br /> that was purchased. <br /> The major reason this equipment was selected by the Groveland <br /> Park Foundation Directors was because we received a very favor- <br /> • <br /> able bid proposal and also the Groveland Park Foundation felt it <br /> had the best play value , as well as variety of equipment. <br /> Staff is especially pleased that the City Council allocated an <br /> additional $2 , 500 from the MSA Bond Fund to match the Groveland <br /> Park Foundation and Neighborhood Park Planning Fund to make the <br /> playground equipment a reality. Staff will have additional bro- <br /> chures outlining the Durascape product at Thursday evening ' s <br /> meeting . <br /> BKA/sll <br /> Attachment <br />
