home, for rehabilitation utilizing HOME funding. The property falls under housing
preservation and will be owned by the city to support affordable housing efforts
and promote home ownership for low-income families. The home has been

home can be listed for resale.

C. CSX Property Restrictive Covenant Public Works
Staff requests approval of a Response Activity Plan (RAP) and Restrictive
Covenant (RC) regarding the recently purchased CSX rail corridor, and
permission for the Mayor to sign the RC, subject to approval by the state.
The bike path on the Adelaide Pointe property was built using federal funds,
Page 2 of 6
Page 6 of 233
and therefore when removed as a part of the Adelaide Pointe development
the City entered into a "conversion" with the Michigan Department of Natural
Resources (MDNR). That conversion process will result in a different recreation
asset within the City being encumbered by those federal funds and the
associated restrictions. The City has proposed and received preliminary
approval to encumber the recently acquired CSX railroad corridor that is
adjacent to the Lakeshore Trail.
An environmental assessment (EA) was completed as a part of the conversion
process, and that EA identified locations in the CSX property that have higher
than normal concentrations of certain legacy industrial chemicals. In order to
receive final approval of the conversion, a Response Activity Plan (RAP) must be
approved by the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and
Energy (EGLE) and a and Restrictive Covenant (RC) must be placed on the CSX
property. The documents detail how those areas will be mitigated and
managed by the City going forward. Specifically, certain areas of the property
are proposed to receive a 2-foot thick soil cap. Signature and recording will not
take place until both the RAP and RC are approved by EGLE.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval of a Response Activity Plan (RAP) and
Restrictive Covenant (RC) regarding the recently purchased CSX rail corridor,
and permission for the Mayor to sign the RC, subject to approval by the state.
Motion by Vice Mayor St.Clair, second by Commissioner German, to approve a
Response Activity Plan (RAP) and Restrictive Covenant (RC) regarding the
recently purchased CSX rail corridor, and permission for the Mayor to sign the
RC, subject to approval by the state.

D. Contract Award: H92344 Edgewater & H92340 Millard DPW- Engineering
Staff is requesting authorization to approve a contract with McCormick Sand,
Inc. in the amount of $822,395.00 for road reconstruction work on Edgewater,
Lakeshore Drive to Thompson; and Millard, Lake Dune to dead end.
Bids were solicited for a construction project to reconstruct Edgewater;
Lakeshore Drive to Thompson; and Millard; Lake Dune to dead end. McCormick
Sand provided the low bid.
The bids did come in over budget by almost $300,000, however the consistency
in the bid prices from firm to firm suggests the pricing is accurate. The streets
funds have a healthy fund reserve and can absorb the additional costs; during
Page 3 of 6
Page 7 of 233
the FY24-25 budgeting process the capital improvement plan (CIP) will be
reviewed to make sure that included projects are within the funds available.
AMOUNT REQUESTED: $822,395.00

E. Extension of Partnership Agreement Boys & Girls Club of the Muskegon
Lakeshore DPW- Parks
Staff is requesting authorization to extend our contract with the Boys & Girls Club
of the Muskegon Lakeshore for temporary staffing services during the 2024
maintenance season.
The Boys & Girls Club anticipates providing approximately 8 staff split into two
teams, and in consultation with DPW, identified two service areas that they
would be well suited for:
1. Landscape maintenance, waste-removal and general support in the BID area
downtown.
2. Restroom cleaning and waste removal at various parks.
DPW typically hires up to 30 seasonal employees each year from GoodTemps
(Goodwill). The staffing provided by this agreement will take the place of an
approximately equal number of our typical seasonal employees, helping DPW
fill our roster during the labor shortage and providing employment and training
for younger community members. Temporary staffing is accounted for in the
annual budget of the departments that use these services. The employees
under this agreement are included in the parks (general) fund budget.
We have raised the contract $10,000 due to the closing of Community
Encompass work programs creating more space within the budget for this
Page 4 of 6
Page 8 of 233
program, and the opportunity for recreation assistance.
AMOUNT REQUESTED: $50,000.00
FUND OR ACCOUNT: 101-770

Club of the Muskegon Lakeshore for temporary staffing services during the 2024

Muskegon City Commission
Commission Meeting Date: April 9, 2024 Title: Trinity Health Arena Facility Upgrades
(Locker-rooms A & E)
Submitted by: Jake Laime, Arena Manager Department: Arena
Brief Summary:
Staff will be seeking approval to construct new public locker-room space and storage improvements
at the Trinity Health Arena.
Detailed Summary & Background:
At the February 13, 2024 commission meeting, the Lumberjacks received approval to renovate their
business offices, locker-room and medical space. The project will provide the team with the best
amenities and continued success in player recruitment while also assisting in ADA upgrades and
forfeiting storage and office space back to arena staff. The Lumberjacks will incur the expense of
those project costs.
As a result of the Lumberjacks project, the Arena will need to reallocate space taken by the team.
Locker room A will be repurposed for Arena storage and Locker room E will be converted to a larger
and suitable space to accommodate the loss of Locker room A.
The modifications to the two arena locker rooms would ideally be made when the Lumberjacks start
their $2.5M renovation project. Transitioning Locker room A into storage provides approximately 450
square feet of much-needed on-site storage and addresses the liability of the current practice of
transporting flooring, turf and stages across Shoreline Dr. The team has offered to pay for the
demolition of Locker-room A as part of their scope of work.
The arena has three other suitable locker rooms, in B, C, and D. Locker-room E is much smaller and
currently cannot accommodate a full team. Staff are developing plans to renovate locker-room E at
a cost of approximately $145,000. This would add additional square footage, restrooms, and seating,
including bringing this lower level to ADA standards. Locker room E can be completed by August. The
fund source for the locker-room E project will come from the $1M which was reallocated as part of
the MEDC Revitalization and Placemaking (RAP) 1.0 grant program.
Staff has been working to develop a long-term solution to three downtown issues: large-capacity
public restrooms for special events and daily visitors, ADA egress from the west side of the arena, and
capacity to replace the arena’s storage that was lost in a windstorm in 2015.
Renovation of these locker-rooms is part of a continuous Capital Improvement Plan. In 2023, the city
improved ADA access from Western Ave using the small alleyway between the arena and the CIO
Hall. The walkway now consists of a ramp connecting Western Ave to the egress doors on the Arena’s
western façade. As part of the ramp construction, barrier-free entry now exists to the arena’s new
restrooms directly from the exterior of the facility. Additionally, as part of the new ramped egress, a
storage area approximately 20 feet x 25 feet was created to help store important arena assets like
football/soccer turf, floor coverings, etc. The project also included replacing the stormwater, sanitary
Page 31 of 233
sewers, and water mains in the alley. The City's ARPA funds were used for the non-utility
improvements, and the utility funds for the corresponding utility improvements.

Key Focus Areas:
Renovation of Lockerroom E to replace Lockerroom A which is being converted to on-site arena
storage.

Commission Meeting Date: April 9, 2024 Title: Liquid Sodium Hypochlorite Contract
Submitted by: Joe Buthker, DPW Superintendent Department: DPW- Water Filtration Plan
Brief Summary:
Staff is requesting authorization to purchase liquid sodium hypochlorite from Webb Chemical.
Detailed Summary & Background:
The Water Filtration Plant uses sodium hypochlorite in the production of drinking water. The
application of sodium hypochlorite is one of several crucial processes used to inactivate or
remove pathogens from the water. Since 1996, the Water Filtration Plant has solicited
competitive bids for water treatment chemicals jointly with the cities of Grand Haven, Grand
Rapids, Holland, Muskegon Heights, and Wyoming. The City of Grand Rapids manages this
bidding process and holds the master agreement.
Bids were solicited for a one-year contract with the option to renew for two additional one-
year terms. Webb Chemical’s bid has no price increases for the one-year duration of the
contract and is overall the cheapest bidder. Webb Chemical is a local supplier to Muskegon
County and has supplied the cooperative with liquid sodium hypochlorite in the past. Staff
recommends we continue with cooperative and approve Webb Chemical as our supplier.

The Water Filtration Plant has used an average of 450 tons of liquid sodium hypochlorite the
previous three fiscal years. Under the new contract this amount would cost $164,700.00 for the
one-year contract, this is approximately a 30% reduction from our current contract. Liquid
sodium hypochlorite is included in the budget, but the actual amount spent will depend on
water demand and source water quality.

Recreation Director
Brief Summary:
The City of Muskegon Parks & Recreation Department is submitting updated survey results and a
capital improvement plan to be used to update our 2022 Parks & Recreation Master Plan. The
department has a budget of $6.1 million for these improvements.
Detailed Summary & Background:
The Parks & Recreation Department is proposing an amendment to the 2022 Parks & Recreation
Master Plan with an update to the survey/community engagement & capital improvement plan.
During the summer and fall of 2023, the Parks & Recreation team launched a broad engagement
plan that focused on a survey through our Community Engagement Hub. We used this information,
along with national park standards and our equity-centered capital improvement plan, to prioritize
how the ARPA funds that were devoted to park improvements would be spent. This list is not the only
improvements that will be seen in our parks, but this is how we plan to use the $6.1 million that the
City of Muskegon Commission approved to be devoted to the park improvement plan in a 2022
commission meeting.
This information was vetted through the Parks & Recreation advisory committee and after months of
discussions this document is ready to seek commission approval.
All individual purchases & contracts will follow City of Muskegon procurement policies.

The survey was available online from July 12, 2023 through November 17, 2023. The survey was also available in a paper
form and at each of the 7 pop-up parties. These 7 parks were selected due to low engagement for the 2022 survey
(Mcrae, Aamodt, Sheldon, St. Joseph, Smith-Ryerson, Beaukema & Reese). Staff from the Parks & Recreation
department had tablets available to assist park users with completing the survey.

Section 1 | Demographic Information
● 1,051 participants started the survey but did not complete the entire thing
● 825 deduplicated participants started the survey but did not complete the entire thing
● 590 deduplicated participants completed the entire survey
*Deduplication refers to a method of eliminating a dataset's redundant data. In a secure data deduplication process, a deduplication assessment tool identifies
extra copies of data and deletes them, so a single instance can then be stored
All data in this report represents the entire 1,051 participants unless otherwise noted. If you are interested in learning
more about Zencity's deduplication tool, please review this article. If you would like to see data using the deduplication
tool, please contact the City of Muskegon Community Engagement Department at: communications@shorelinecity.com.

Section 4 | Future Park Planning
The Parks & Recreation Department asked survey takers to provide feedback on potential future park amenities. The
majority of the survey was to collect data to aid in understanding the community’s thoughts on current park assets, but
the Parks & Recreation Department was also interested in beginning to plan for adding new and additional amenities to
the parks. It was noted at the beginning of the section there are no current plans to add any of the below-mentioned
amenities, but the department was carefully studying the feedback.

Submitted by: Joe Buthker, DPW Superintendent Department: DPW- Equipment & Sanitation
Brief Summary:
Staff is requesting approval to purchase three trailers for the Equipment Division.
Detailed Summary & Background:
The first trailer purchase will be a new Low Boy trailer used for hauling heavy equipment to and
from job sites. It will replace our current Low Boy trailer that has been retired. Four bids were
received, and staff recommends the low bid of $49,080 from Kaufman Trailer.

Muskegon City Commission
Commission Meeting Date: April 9, 2024 Title: Asset Management Software
Submitted by: Joe Buthker, DPW Superintendent Department: DPW- Water Filtration Plan
Brief Summary:
Staff requests authorization to enter into a contract with OpenGov for a three-year subscription,
along with setup services, to implement an asset management software system for the Water
Filtration Plant.
Detailed Summary & Background:
For years, the Water Filtration Plant has relied on a mix of staff experience, paper documents,
and a variety of electronic documents to track water plant assets and maintenance activities.
Due to the large number of assets and complex maintenance tasks performed by staff at the
Water Filtration Plant, this method has proven to be inadequate.
Two departments within DPW have already begun the process of using Cartegraph, an asset
management program designed for public works. The staff of the Water Filtration Plant is
excited to be the third department to bring Cartegraph on board. Water Filtration Plant staff
believe that Cartegraph will modernize the maintenance of the Water Filtration Plant assets,
improve reliability, and permit staff to become more efficient, proactive, and proficient.
This is a 3-year contract for software services with the first year prorated for a 7-month period.
This will permit the Water Filtration contract to renew on 11-27-2024, which is the same time
other DPW departments are due for renewal.
Year 1 (04-27-2024 to 11-26-2024) $7,230.42
Year 2 (11-27-2024 to 11-26-2025) $12,395.00
Year 3 (11-27-2025 to 11-26-2026) $13,014.75
There will be additional one-time costs this fiscal year of $23,370 for professional services and
$2,400 for travel and expenses related to training. This cost will be for Cartegraph staff to help
the Water Filtration Plant implement the software and develop customizations that will assist
our operations.

Platinum Construction has an approved site plan to build for-sale commercial storage condos on
vacant property on Ottawa Street, but a former Giddings St. Right of Way Easement is in the way of
one of the units.

RESOLUTION AMENDING
STREET VACATION RESOLUTION
This Resolution is made by the City of Muskegon (“City”), a Michigan municipal corporation, of
933 Terrace Street, Muskegon, Michigan 49440, with reference to the following facts:
Background
A. On November 26, 1963, the Muskegon City Commission adopted a resolution declaring
certain portions of streets vacated, discontinued and abolished. A copy of such resolution was recorded
with the Muskegon County Register of Deeds on December 16, 1963 at Liber 790, Page 407, a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “1963 Resolution”).
B. The 1963 Resolution also provides that such road vacation shall not conflict or interfere
with the utility rights previously acquired by the City or by any public service utility in the City operating
in, over, and upon said portion of the streets vacated by the 1963 Resolution.
C. The City now wishes to amend the 1963 Resolution by surrendering certain of the City’s
rights related to the portion of Giddings Avenue vacated in accordance with paragraph 5 of the 1963
Resolution and as further described in this Resolution.
Therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms not defined in this Resolution will have the same meanings
as defined in the 1963 Resolution.
2. Amendment. The City surrenders all its utility rights and all rights of public service
utilities in the following property:
The portion of Giddings Avenue lying between the Easterly line of Ottawa Street and the Westerly
line of U.S. 31 Business Route, Block 156 of the Revised Plat (of 1903) of the City of Muskegon,
Muskegon County, Michigan, as recorded in Liber 3 of Plats, Page 71, Muskegon County Records,
except that part taken for State Highway purposes in the instrument recorded in Liber 772, Pages
261-286, inclusive, EXCEPT
That part of the Vacated Giddings Avenue right of way in the 1903 Revised Plat of the City of
Muskegon described as: Beginning at the Northwest corner of Lot 1, Block 159 of said Plat; thence
Northerly 15.00 feet along the East Right of Way line of Ottawa Street (66.00 feet wide); thence
Easterly 15.00 feet parallel with the South line of the Vacated Giddings Avenue right of way; thence
Southerly 15.00 feet parallel with the East right of way line of Ottawa Street to the South line of
the Vacated Giddings Ave. right of way; thence Westerly 15.00 feet along said South line to the
Page 191 of 233
Point of Beginning, over which the City retains a watermain easement. The watermain easement is
depicted on Exhibit B.
3. No Other Amendments. Except as expressly set forth in this Resolution, the 1963
Resolution remains in full force and effect and is enforceable according to its terms.
4. Effective Immediately. This Resolution shall become effective immediately.

Muskegon City Commission
Commission Meeting Date: April 9, 2024 Title: Water & Sewer Rate Changes
Submitted by: Dan VanderHeide, Public Works Department: Public Works
Director
Brief Summary:
Staff requests adoption of the two included resolutions setting water and sewer rates for the fiscal
year from July 1, 2024 to June 20, 2025.
Detailed Summary & Background:
On April 8, 2024, staff presented a synopsis of the water system finances, including that the water
system is in debt to other City funds by over $2,000,000 at the close of the 22-23 fiscal year. This is due
to increasing labor and material costs and capital-intensive repairs to the system.
Staff is recommending no changes to the sewer rates, except for the updated debt service fee as
described below. Staff recommends a 10% increase in the water commodity rate from $2.06 per unit
to $2.27 per unit, and recommends the updated debt service fee described below.
This is the second year of the debt service fee, and the first time it will be updated on an annual basis.
This fee, when combined from all accounts, represents the total amount of debt paid in the prior
fiscal year (for example, the fee proposed at this time will reimburse the system for the debt paid in
the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023). Each year, staff will make an accounting of the amount of
debt paid by each of the systems and will present adjustments to the fee for consideration by the
Commission. This will more directly tie the projects the City performs to the amount of the water bill,
and will allow the fee to be reduced as certain bonds or other debts fall off of the system books.
The fee is distributed on a meter equivalency basis, meaning a typical residential account will pay
the fee at a rate of “one,” while commercial and industrial accounts will pay the fee at a potentially
higher rate depending on the size of their water meter. Irrigation accounts will not pay the fee,
assuming they are tied to a domestic water account at the same address. Attached is a breakdown
of the meter equivalency calculations using factors from the American Water Works Association
(AWWA). The water system paid $1,177,421 in debt payments for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023,
and the sewer system paid $399,455 for the same period. Using the attached chart, the fee will be
$5.94 per month for a residential account on the water system, and $2.02 per month for a residential
account on the sewer system. This represents a $0.52 decrease in the combined debt service fees
compared to the current fees.
City Code states that the City Commission sets the water and sewer rates by resolution. The
attached resolutions will establish the rates and fees described herein, effective July 1, 2024.

Muskegon City Commission
Commission Meeting Date: April 9, 2024 Title: Froebel School Access and Construction
Agreement with Muskegon County Land Bank
Submitted by: Jake Eckholm, Development Department: Economic Development
Services Director
Brief Summary:
City Staff, Land Bank staff, and Samaritas have partnered to achieve a $1.4 million grant to improve
Froebel School, and we need a legal agreement as the owner allowing other entities to conduct
work there before the grant funds can be assigned.
Detailed Summary & Background:
The City has worked with the County Land Bank and Samaritas to apply for and received an award
of $1.4 million dollars to conduct hard cost improvements to the Froebel School facility in anticipation
of it being a LIHTC affordable housing candidate to MSHDA in October of this year. While the City
Commission has already approved a sale of the site to Samaritas contingent on the award of tax
credits, we remain the owner until that process is complete. As the fiduciary of the grant funds, the
County Land Bank will retain Samaritas/Pinnacle Construction to conduct the improvements to the
building, and we need to have a formal access agreement allowing them to do so. Improvements
are to be determined after a formal assessment, but are likely to include a new roof as well as some
environmental abatement and potentially new window systems.

SITE ACCESS AGREEMENT
This Site Access Agreement (“Agreement”) is made by and between the City of Muskegon,
a Municipal corporation, of 933 Terrace Street, Muskegon, Michigan 49440 (“City”) and Muskegon
County Land Bank Authority, a Michigan limited liability company, of 173 E Apple Ave #104,
Muskegon, MI 49442 (“Land Bank”) (together the “Parties”) with reference to the following facts:
Background
A. City owns the real property commonly known as 417 Jackson Ave., Muskegon,
Michigan 49442, Parcel No. 24-205-024-0001-00 (“Site”). The Site includes two (2) buildings
(“Buildings”).
B. Land Bank requests permission to enter the Site for the exclusive purposes of
preparing the Site for redevelopment, demo, remodeling, remediation, site prep, and general
construction (the “Scope of Work”).
Therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:
1. Access. City gives permission to Land Bank or its agents, contractors, or other
authorized representatives (collectively, “Authorized Parties”) to enter upon the Site to perform the
Scope of Work. This permission is effective immediately upon the execution of this Agreement by
City and Land Bank. Authorized Parties may enter the Site during normal business hours and may
also make special arrangements to enter the Site at other times after agreement from the City.
2. Scope of Work. The permission granted by City under this Agreement is
contemplated to be used solely for the purposes of redevelopment, demo, remodeling, remediation,
site prep, and general construction (the “Scope of Work”). No actions outside of the Scope of Work
may be taken by the Authorized Parties without the express prior written consent of the City. Land
Bank agrees that the structural integrity of the Buildings or their foundations will be maintained during
the course of the investigation and upon completion of the Scope of Work. City shall have the right
at any time during the term of this Agreement to inspect the Site.
3. Costs. Authorized Parties will perform the Scope of Work and any other activity
related to this Agreement at their sole cost and expense. Authorized Parties will not allow any
mechanics or other lien to be placed on the Site. Should any such lien arise due to the acts or omissions
of Authorized Parties or subcontractors working on behalf of Authorized Parties, Land Bank will, no
later than 20 days from the claim of such lien, fully discharge the lien at their expense. City is not
required to perform any activity or incur any expense for any purpose under this Agreement.
4. Default. If Authorized Parties fails to perform any of its respective obligations, or
Land Bank fails to perform their obligations set forth in this Agreement, City may terminate and cancel
1
Page 203 of 233
Authorized Parties’ right of access to the Site, cure the default, and/or pursue all or any other remedies
available under law or in equity, including, without limit, pursuit of equitable remedies such as
enforcement of obligations by specific performance and/or pursuit of a temporary and/or permanent
injunction. If City cures a default, then Land Bank shall reimburse City for the costs thereof within
ten (10) business days of written request for reimbursement. A default by Authorized Parties shall be
deemed a default by Land Bank.
5. No Admission. The granting of this permission by the City is not intended, nor
should it be construed, as an admission of liability on the part of the City or the City’s successors and
assigns for any contamination discovered on the Site.
6. Indemnification. Land Bank shall require that any of its agents, contractors,
representatives, or consultants indemnify and hold City harmless from any and all liabilities, claims,
losses, suits, actions, judgments, damages, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), or penalties
arising out of an Authorized Party’s exercise of the right to access the Site and conduct the
investigation.
7. Insurance. Prior to Authorized Parties entering the Site to conduct the Scope of
Work, Land Bank shall, and shall cause Authorized Parties to, obtain, maintain, and deliver to City
evidence thereof, at no cost or expense to City:
a. Professional liability errors and omissions coverage in an amount of not less than
$2,000,000.00;
b. Commercial general liability coverage including personal injury, products, and
completed operations liability, with bodily injury and property damage limits of not
less than $2,000,000.00 per occurrence, and contractual liability, advertising, and
personal injury limits of $1,000,000.00 per person or organization;
c. Worker’s compensation coverage with statutory limits; and
d. Commercial automobile liability coverage, including owned, non-owned, and hired
vehicles with coverages of not less than $1,000,000.00 for bodily injury and property
damage for each accident. This insurance must be in the form of an “occurrence”
policy.
Such policies to name City as an additional insured party, which insurance shall provide coverage
against any claim for personal liability or property damage caused by the Authorized Parties or their
employees, agents, representatives, or consultants in connection with the Scope of Work.
8. Waiver of Claims. Land Bank acknowledges that it enters onto the Site and performs
the Scope of Work at its own risk. Land Bank, for themselves and their respective officers, directors,
shareholders, members, affiliates, agents, employees, and subcontractors, waive any and all Claims
against City arising out of, in connection with, resulting from, or incidental to, directly or indirectly,
the conditions of the Property or any improvements on the Property.

Detailed Summary & Background:
This plow truck will be purchased to replace one of the existing plow trucks in the equipment fleet.

The total cost of $207,681 will be paid for with funds budgeted in the upcoming fiscal year (2024-25).

Muskegon City Commission
Commission Meeting Date: October 24, 2023 Title: GameTime Playground Grant
Submitted By: Kyle Karczewski Department: Parks & Recreation
Brief Summary: A request to allow staff to enter into a contract with Sinclair Recreation for the
purchase of 4 new playgrounds for a total amount of $446,531.89. This includes the installation of
St. Joseph’s only.
Detailed Summary & Background:
Staff applied for and was selected for a GameTiime matching funds grant. The grant provides 100%
matching funds for the equipment portion of the purchase (essentially 50% off). Four parks were
proposed in the grant application: St. Joseph, Margaret Drake Elliot, Sheldon & McCrea. These parks
have playgrounds past their lifespan (one of which was already removed), and preliminary survey
results show the community supports new playground investments at these parks.
Staff engaged the community for help with the exact playgrounds and color selections with an online
survey and open house. The estimated installation for St. Joseph’s & Margaret Drake Elliot will be
spring 2024. Sheldon & McCrea installation dates are TBD due to Master Planning efforts and
working the playgrounds into new park improvements. Funds are proposed from the Parks budgeted
Capital Improvement funds via the convention center naming rights and parking fees.
Install fees: Due to the timeline, the only playground with removal & install fees is St. Joseph’s. This
playground was selected in early 2023 through the Neighborhood for a separate grant so there was
already information for this project. We will have to bid those services out, they typically run between
50k (EWF)-90k (rubber) per park depending on the surfacing selected.
