Design concept plans for the east side of the park <br />including the handicap playground have been completed, Contractor's <br />bids for the construction of the play structure have been submitted <br />and reviewed, by the City Park and Recreation Department, the Finance <br />Committee, and ourselves. <br />At the 21 January 1982 meeting of the Finance Committee these bids <br />were discussed. A member of our staff was in attendance at this <br />meeting to present our recommendation regarding these bids and a <br />summary of the work which remains to be done before the playground can <br />be constructed. Following some discussion, the Committee requested <br />that we submit a proposal to the Foundation to participate in the <br />completion of this work. This letter is in response to that request. <br />Since the 21 January meeting, we have discussed this matter with Frank <br />Rog and Charles Honchell to determine not only the most expeditious <br />and cost effective process for the completion of this work, but also, <br />what role we should play in the process. It has been our mutual goal <br />in this effort to maximize the participation of the City Parks and <br />Engineering staffs to keep costs down, However, we do feel that our <br />experience with the western side of Central Park, and our extensive <br />knowledge of the special characteristics of the handicapped playground <br />combine to rake us uniquely capable of coordinating this critical <br />phase. <br />Attached for your review and consideration is a copy of a memorandum <br />summarizing this planningr design, and construction process. As this <br />memorandum indicates, we propose to undertake four of the thirteen <br />remaining tasks which have been identified, Let me assure you that <br />we wish to continue to provide our services to you for as reasonable <br />a cost as we can and that we plan to continue to volunteer a portion <br />
