FROM: DAVID A. WILSON, DIRECTOR, PARKS AND RECREATION
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF PLANS & SPECIFICATIONS AND AUTHORIZATION TO
ADVERTISE FOR BIDS FOR FRONTIER PARK FITNESS ELEMENT
(CIP No. 20068)
SUMMARY:
This project includes changing the use of the existing handball walls at Frontier Park
through the purchase and installation of outdoor fitness equipment.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution No. 12-45, approving
specifications for the purchase and installation of new outdoor fitness equipment at
Frontier Park (CIP No. 20068), and authorizing the City Clerk to advertise for bids.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Frontier Park Fitness Element is funded with Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) dollars as part of the 2012-2013 Capital Improvement Program. The total
estimated cost for the project is $57,000.
BACKGROUND:
Over the last several years the area around the handball walls at Frontier Park (1400
Mitchell Avenue) has seen an increase in illicit activities, thus making the park less
desirable for local residents. To address this issue and make the park more useable for
the surrounding community, the idea of changing the facility to encourage healthier
activities was identified. Outdoor fitness equipment provides a suitable option that can
be easily installed with a minimum amount of impact on the park. This type of
equipment offers options for various upper and lower body exercises utilizing the users
own body weight as resistance. A total of fourteen (14) different fitness pieces will be
installed as well as an instructional sign. Examples of the proposed equipment are
attached.
The Community Services Commission has identified the installation of the fitness
element at Frontier Park as the next project to be completed on their seven-year CIP
priority list.
The tentative project schedule is as follows:
