L �p MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT TO: The Honorable City Council FROM: Mary K. Lindley, Director of Community Services DATE: February 1, 2005 (Meeting of February 16, 2005) SUBJECT: Consider Playground Waiver of DISCUSSION Design and Specifications for New Equipment at Virginia Colony Park and the City's Purchasing Procedures The City's FY 2004/05 budget includes $60,000 to replace the existing playground equipment at Virginia Colony Park. The Parks and Recreation Commission discussed and selected the proposed design of the new equipment and is recommending that the City approve the design and equipment proposed by Miracle Recreation Equipment Company (see Attachment Al- A4). There are two playlots, one consisting of a play structure and the other consisting of a swing set. The existing equipment was installed when the park was constructed in 1993. A number of the components on the play structure have rusted completely through and have had to be dismantled. Replacement parts are no longer available. The design and equipment proposed by Miracle is challenging, durable, and attractive. The City has installed Miracle equipment in several of its parks (Community Center Park, Campus Park, Campus Canyon Park, and Peach Hill Park) and staff is satisfied with the quality. 000158 The Honorable City Council February 16, 2005 Page 2 The State of California has a purchasing contract (California Multiple Award Schedule - CMAS) with Miracle. Contracts included on the CMAS have been competitively bidded. The State allows local governments to procure items on the CMAS and successful vendors must extend the price, terms, and conditions to the participating local agency. Public Contract Code Section 10298 authorized the aforementioned process. To that end, staff proposes that the Council waive the City's purchasing procedures and authorize the purchase of the Miracle equipment from the State's CMAS contract list. The design plans for the Virginia Colony Park playground include replacing the existing playground structure and swing set, and the existing woodchip surface in the larger of the two playlots. The recommended color scheme of the proposed equipment is green, brown, and tan. The new proposed playground surface is sand with poured -in -place rubber material to provide the required ADA access. The City has been phasing out the use of woodchips to provide ADA access because they require a greater degree of maintenance than does the combined use of sand and rubberized surfacing material. Additionally, sand has a play value, where the woodchips do not. With the City Council's approval, staff will issue a Request for Proposals for the installation of the new playground equipment and play surface. At a future meeting, the Council will be asked to award a contract to the lowest qualified bidder. The expenditure budget for the project is estimated to be as follows: Estimated Expenditure Cost Playground Equipment $26,000 Playground Surface $10,000 Demolition /Removal $ 8,000 Installation $10,000 Project Manager $ 4,000 Total Budget $58,000 Following the completion of the playground improvements, staff plans to design a walkway connecting the two M: \MLindley \PARKS \Virginia Colony \VC Playground Equipment 2 -16 -05 ccagda.doc 000159 The Honorable City Council February 16, 2005 Page 3 playgrounds to the sidewalk along the perimeter of the park (to facilitate ADA access to the two playlots. Any funds remaining after the completion of the playlot improvements will go towards engineering and design the walkway. Additional funding and City Council action will be required to complete the construction of the walkway improvements, which will be included in the FY 2005/06 budget recommendation. STAFF RECOMbMNDATION Approve the design and specifications for the replacement playground equipment for Virginia Colony Park, waive the City's purchasing procedures, and authorize purchase of Miracle play equipment from the California Multiple Award Schedule list.
