AGENDA TITLE: Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for Blakely
Park - Shade Structures
MEETING DATE: December 19, 2018
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve plans specifications and authorize advertisement for bids
for Blakely Park — Shade Structures.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
This project consists of installing two 10 -foot by 24 -foot shade
structures near the Blakely Park North Pool, along with other
miscellaneous improvements to facilitate the shade structures
installations.
Currently, spectators and swimmers do not have shade cover in the area west of the concrete deck for
the Blakely North Pool. Consistent with the Blakely Park master plan, this project will install two shade
structures in this location to provide respite from the elements for swimming events and other
miscellaneous park use.
The shade structures will utilize two offset steel columns and heavy duty, professional grade fabric that is
fire rated. The fabric canopies are attached by mechanical tensioners which allow for easy fabric
removal at the onset of winter and installation in spring. A sample structure is shown in Exhibit A.
Improvements will include concrete footings, furnishing and installing the two steel and fabric shade
structures, assembling the shade structures, and repairing landscape damaged by the installation.
The plans and specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid opening date
is January 23, 2019. The project estimate is $40,000.
FISCAL IMPACT: The project will have a minimal impact on annual maintenance costs.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: The City will be using Community Development Block Grant funds. Specific
account information will be identified at project award.
