Report
Summary
This agreement was originally established through the use of a Mohave Educational Services Cooperative Contract to repair and replace playground and outdoor fitness equipment throughout the City, as existing equipment nears the end of its lifecycle. As a result of a grant awarded to the Neighborhood Services Department (NSD), the Parks and Recreation Department in partnership with NSD will use this contract and the grant funds for the purchase and installation of 101 benches and 59 tables throughout the City. The current value of the contract did not include this project; therefore, a request is being made to increase the value. This project will enhance and support the quality of recreational programs and services that are provided to the residents of Phoenix.
Contract Term
The contract term is May 10, 2017 through April 30, 2023.
Financial Impact
Upon approval of the additional $250,000, the revised aggregate value will not exceed $2,750,000. Funds are available in the Parks and Recreation Department's budget using grant funds.
