9.c Discussion on repairs to south ballfield backstopSCANDIA
Staff Report
Date of Meeting: May 16, 2017
To: Mayor, City Council
From: Adam Hawkinson, Director of Public Works
Re: Repair / Replacement of the Back Stop at the South Ball Field
Background: The City has a goal to provide recreational opportunities for the community. Structures
used to provide these opportunities need maintenance and repairs to ensure a positive experience.
Issue: Staff has noticed that the back stop poles have heaved out of the ground creating an unsafe
condition on the South ball field.
Proposal: Staff would like to have the posts reset and straightened as soon as possible.
Two bids have been secured to perform the project. Both are on state contract and are providing us
with state pricing for time and materials. Century Fence quote is: $5,095.00 for repairs or $6,335.00 for
full replacement and Keller is $5,033.00 for repairs or $ 11,978.00 for full replacement.
Fiscal: There was no funding provided in the budget for this Park project. There are no funds in the
budget for this repair or replacement.
Options: Accept Keller quote @ $5,033.00 and perform the repairs
1.) Accept Century Fence quote @ $5,095.00 and perform the repairs
2.) Accept Century Fence quote @ $6,335.00 and replace the back stop
3.) Accept Keller Fence quote @ $11,978.00 and replace the back stop
4.) Accept none of the quotes
Recommendation:
Staff recommends option #3 first and option #1 second if the council if the Council grants the funds.
