<br /> I <br /> I- Undated Cost Estimate for the nroiect <br /> The cost estimate by Maier Stewart Associates is $362,750. This is considerably less than was <br /> I previously estimated. The bid would include an alternate for the lighting ofthe SW field and the <br /> parking lot. The playground structure is not included in the price estimate or bids. I would like <br /> to choose that structure and obtain bids separately. It does have to be installed by December of <br /> I 1997 as a requirement ofthe grant. Additional fundraising will continue in an attempt to raise <br /> funds for the installation of this structure in 1996 or Spring of 1997. <br /> I I have written several grants to local foundations that I have not heard from. It is my intention to <br /> continue fundraising. Additional money may be needed for lights, unless the bids received are less <br /> I than estimated. The storm drainage construction and erosion control for the project total $22,000 <br /> (see Maier Stewart Cost Estimate). It is my assumption that this amount would come out of the <br /> Storm Water Management Fund. Any money raised for this project beyond what is needed for <br /> I improvements and the playground structure will be used to replenish the $200,000 used from the <br /> park fund. The park fund currently has a balance of approximately $600,000. <br /> I Conclusion <br /> The proposed project will address and correct the Americans with Disability Act inaccessibility, <br /> safety concerns, and the drainage and erosion problems that currently exist. Engineer Stonehouse <br /> I feels confident that the bids will be received in the range of the updated estimate he has provided. <br /> The proposed plan has been shared with the Ramsey County Sheriff under Sheriff, John Louey. <br /> He is pleased with the design and anticipates that it will help to decrease the amount of vandalism <br /> l- and unwanted activity that currently exists in the park. <br /> I Attachments: resolution & price estimate <br /> I CSWjt <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> Ie <br /> I <br />
