City Hall Playground Equipment Replacement Project— This has been budgeted for in 2008 ($38,000). The Commission would like this completed before 50th Anniversary celebration at MV Festival in the Park. Assignment for the Commission is to review the Game Time website at http://www.2ametime.com/ to start looking at what type of play equipment the Commission will recommend. GameTime has submitted a draft plan form the Commissioners consideration. Staff has determined that the estimated costs are for the playground fiberfill, and any other non - equipment items are $6,600. This amount can then be subtracted from total budgeted amount to determine the estimated budget for the play equipment. $38,000 - $6,600 = $31,400
