Subject: Sunnyhill Park Playground Designs
Introduction
Sunnyhill Park is scheduled for completion of phase one of the park development in 2012. As part of
the park, a playground structure will be constructed.
Background
Three vendors were asked to submit up to two design proposals for the park. As is common practice,
staff generates a standard list of requirements for the vendors to begin the process and then rely on
their professionals to design a play structure that will be interactive, exciting and a benefit to the
neighborhood and community. All proposals were required to meet the following minimum standards:
1. $38,000 maximum budget
2. Swing set with two regular, one ADA and one toddler swing
3. Concrete maintenance border
4. Wood chip base with 12" compaction
5. Natural or earth colors (typically forest green, burgundy and browns)
It is further stated that proposals with new and innovative play systems that may provide different or
themed play opportunities not currently available in the neighborhood /community will be given
preference.
Although not listed in the playground proposals, a park bench and waste receptacle will be placed
along the playground area as well.
In total, five proposals were submitted from three vendors. Attached to this report you'll find the
renderings for each of those proposals.
Recommendation
Recommend playground design for Sunnyhill Park.
