6.c Lilleskogen Sign Update
PW Staff report: January 2021 report 2-1-21
To: PRC
From: Director of Public Works – Adam Hawkinson
RE: Park Sign supports - Lilleskogen Park
Information:
In 2020 the PRC made efforts to install ID signage at Lilleskogen and Hay Lake. Finances and further discussion
of design detail occurred and signage was held off until 2021. The sign has been ordered. The next process is
to select the end supports the City would like to have for the park signs.
The criteria as approved by City Council and Tourism Committee: Signs should be constructed with two brick
supports or composite supports made to look like wood, whichever is most appropriate to the setting, designed
to last 15 years or more. Any sign supports at or below grade shall be treated to refusal material.”
In the packet are the quotes staff has received from two companies that create end supports for signs. Also
included is pricing for treated timber materials. Staff is seeking a quote from Soderlunds to perform the post
material installation. The quote for the real brick ends is being modified for 2021 but the contractor said there
would not be much change. The DeMars company has an additional charge for doing one sign per year rather
than all three.
Proposal:
The PRC should make a recommendation on which materials and vendor to move forward with in the spring.
Staff is working on quotes from a vendor to install the treated timbers.
Quotes:
DeMars – all 3 signs - $19,936.36 = $6,666.67 per sign, $8,891.00 for individual one per year.
Behnken - $5,200.00 per sign – small increase for 2021
Quote Request out to Soderlund – Personnel to offer quote is out for Covid – Staff estimate $1,500.00 –
footings and anchoring + $320 for posts
Financial impact:
$10,000.00 was budgeted for the sign. This includes the sign and installation. Any options other than the
timbers would put the request over the budget appropriation .
Options:
Staff proposes the PRC make a recommendation of either the Behnken or Soderlund installation denoting
preference #1 and #2 to the City Council. Staff is confident that the timber structures will come in below the
Behnken quote. By the next council meeting the Soderlund estimate will be secured. Terri and Adam can
present the proposal to the council.
