Park playground on council agenda
SANDPOINT — City staff will be seeking permission to solicit bids for Travers Park playground and splash pad construction from the city council at its Wednesday meeting.
Staff will also be seeking approval of a change order and amendment to an agreement with Ginno Construction for the construction of the playground in order to address unforeseen contract changes, resulting in a new guaranteed maximum price. These changes include the enlargement of a garage door to accommodate future maintenance equipment, and addition of asphalt paving on an existing pathway to comply with ADA accessibility requirements, among a few other changes. The previously approved contract amount was $7,283,339.35, while the new amount would be $7,370,040.50. The project has been budgeted for with funds from the James E. Russell Family Donation and the city’s Parks CIP budget.
The council will also consider approval of taxi licensing for a new taxi business, Panhandle Ride-Share, operating in city limits.
