March 21: Finance Committee Meeting

Staff reviewed the bid openings for the 2023 Asphalt Improvements project, the 2023 Park Avenue Dredging project, the 2023 Weeding and Landscape Services project, and the 2023 Hidden Creek AquaPark Deck Chairs Replacement project.  The asphalt bid includes two alternatives to convert 10 or 12 tennis courts into pickleball courts at Danny Cunniff Park. Staff presented permanent and temporary options for the pickleball court conversion. Based on feedback from the Finance Committee, staff will further investigate temporary solutions for additional pickleball courts at Danny Cunniff Park and bring a recommendation back to the Park Board of Commissioners. Staff will request that the Park Board of Commissioners approve the base bid and alternates, excluding the pickleball court conversions, from Troch-McNeil Paving Company, Inc at the upcoming Regular Meeting.  

While staff received approval from the Park Board of Commissioners to enter into a five-year lease agreement with EZGO for golf carts, staff explored the costs to purchase the EZGO carts and GPS through Sourcewell and found there is a significant savings. Staff received consensus from the Finance Committee to place the purchase of the EZGO golf carts and GPS on the consent agenda at the Regular Meeting.  

Staff presented the two proposals for the design of the Park Avenue Access Improvement Project. Staff are recommending that the Park Board of Commissioners approve the contract with Hitchcock Design Group for the design and engineering of the north beach at the upcoming Regular Meeting.  

Staff presented three renovation options for the Deer Creek Racquet Club Locker Room Improvement project.
