PUBLIC WORKS • PARKS & RE CREATION
To: Parks & Recreation & Forestry Commissioners
From: Don Peterson — Director of Public Works/Parks and Recreation
Date: October 28, 2021
RE: RANDOM PARK PLAYGROUND
Discussion) Background
The Parks and Recreation and Forestry Commission has selected the Random Park play area
to be updated. The Commission looked at a plan provided by Minnesota Wisconsin
Playgrounds, however with the rise in costs for material supplies and increased delays on
supplies, the improvements were put on hold.
Public Works Staff requested updated bids for the play area:
St.Croix Recreation - $140,000.00
Mn/Wisc Palygrounds- $ 135,577.00
Attached are layout designs as well as conceptual drawings of each vendor's proposal.
Recommendation:
Public Works Staff is requesting that the Parks and Recreation and Forestry Commission
discuss and provide further direction.
Respectfully submitted,
C�06"- 2.e,��
Don Peterson — Director of Public Works/Parks and Recreation
