Ayes - 3, Nays - 0, AbstaIn -1 (Harris) Motion earried. VI. COMMITI'EE BUSINESS Restlmation of Commtf;tee Member Carrie Jakober and Committee Member LbJ~ l\Je~1 There is no action necessary at the level of the Parks &, Recreation Committee as this item will be on the next City Council Agenda for consideration. The committee would like, however, to send certificates of appreciation to each member. Replacing Skate Park EauiDment Included in the packet was a copy of a bid from TrueRide skate park equipment, which the committee discussed at the last committee meeting, a bid from MinnesotalW1SCOI1Sin Playground Equipment and a bid from DuraFun. All three bids are within the committee's budget Each manufacturer's equipment is made from different materials. Mr. Harlan Lehman, Minnesota/WlSCOnsin Playground Equipment submitted a bid for Spobncrete, a concrete form of skate park equipment. The equipment being quoted is slightly different from the attached photos because they'll be made for surface mounting. They will come with stainless steel transition plates at the base. These plates come integral to the ramp so there are no fasteners that can come loose. The City will need a crane to off-load the equipment and set it on site. That is all of the "heavy" work that is required. A crane can be rented locally for approximately $100 per hour, depending on the size of the crane.. Mr. Dan W82Iler. DuraFun. emaBed the foUowinil information with the auote for RbiIlo eauinment: I put together numbers and came up with two 48" high (Kids willlilce the additional height better than 36" ramps) quarterpipes that each have two 4' wide sections. Similar to what was purchased initially. One of the quarterpipes includes the slightly used model I have in my warehouse. Delivery may seem high, and it probably is, but I will not get a quote back from Rhino until next week and when I do I will let you know if there is a difference. The price includes an 8' wide street spine that is 24" high. Rhino also has a large street spine that is 48" high for an additional $1300. You may want to include the larger street spine as the users will certainly find it more challenging. If you want to do that I will include it for the money you have to work with. The committee discussed the bids received from three (3) compauies regarding skate park equipment. Chairperson Seeley provided a comparison sheet. The consensus was the concrete product appeared to be the most dmable. Mr. Peterson, Public Works, also viewed the options available and asked Mr. Lehman, sales representative for Spohncrete, for references in a climate similar to Minnesota. Mr. Peterson talked to a representative from the Minneqpolis Parks & Recreation Depaattnent who has the same equipment in six (6) of their parks, as it was previously manufactured as Interlock.
