Lake Ann Park is the City's oldest and most established community park. The new playground will replace an existing redwood play structure located on a hill at the hub of four of seven ball fields and situated adjacent to a park shelter structure. The primary audiences for this structure are the children of adults participating in adult sporting leagues and the siblings of children participating in youth athletic activities. The busiest times for the playground are weekends and weekday evenings. Limited day use by Site Map Meadow Green Park Playground Meadow Green Park - Meadow Green Park, located at 921 Pontiac Lane, is classified as a neighborhood park, but due to the presence of a large ball field area, serves a larger audience than a "typical" neighborhood park. The park is 13 acres in size and contains an existing redwood play structure (to be removed), ball fields, tennis courts, a basketball court, trails and parking for approximately 30 cars. On a typical summer evening, dozens of additional cars are parked "on- street" as people make their way to scheduled ball games. Consistent daytime and weekend use of this park and Park -Wes~ Site Map Bandimere Community Park Playground Bandimere Community Park- Bandimere Community Park, located at 9405 Great Plains Blvd. (Hwy 101), is a 38-acre community park situated south of downtown Chanhassen on Highway 101. Bandimere Park is the City's newest community park, being completed in 1998. The park is home to six ball fields, an existing play structure (to remain), trails and parking for over 250 vehicles. Evening and weekend use of the ball fields is extremely heavy with playground use consistent with the patterns described for Lake Ann Park during these times. The existing playground is also used a great deal during the day and is supported by convenient parking.

Thank you for volunteering to act as the selection committee for the city's 2004 playground projects. We are purchasing three playgrounds--the largest for Lake Ann Park, the next largest for Meadow Green Park, and the smallest for Bandimere Community Park. The playground at Bandimere will be the second at the park and is designed for children ages 3-5. We requested a "themed" structure. The other two playgrounds will replace existing playgrounds and are designed for children ages 5-12. Tonight is not a bidding or price competition. It is a design and quality competition. Each consultant was asked to present a design for each playground using the following budget numbers for playground equipment: Lake Ann Playground $ 65,000 Meadow Green Park $ 35,000 Bandimere Community Park $ 25,000 Total $125,000 Your task is to select what you believe is the best proposal based upon design and quality. Consultants were asked to prepare and present their best three designs using the budget allocated for each site. Upon your selection of a manufacturer, the City will put this project out for bid. Most City purchases over $50,000 must be publicly bid. Obviously the selected manufacturer will bid the project; but other manufacturers may also bid the project by submitting a proposal offering an equivalent product. The group has a variety of options regarding the deliberations necessary to make the selection. Depending upon your reaction to the presentations, you may be able to name a selected manufacturer immediately following the presentations. If you feel a discussion of the merits of each is necessary, you can elect to stay after the presentations to talk things over. If committee members wish to tour existing playground locations for all or selected manufacturers, you can table the meeting to a time convenient for a group tour. I would like to have your decision by April 6th.

Superdur_a_bl .e__pgJyester Powder Coat Finish Powder coating is electrostatically applied at a thickness of 2 to 5 mils (.002 - .005). Powder coating produces a highly decorative finish having a hard, smooth surface, which is resistant to abrasion, corrosion, and mechanical damage. All galvanized tubing has a factory-applied clear acrylic polymer coating. All components shall be free of excess weld and weld spalls. After fabrication all weld joints are to thoroughly cleaned using a chipping hammer and wire brush to remove all weld slag from weld joint. Prior to finishing, components shall be cleaned with a three-stage alkaline bath and a ECLPS 2400 sealer for adhesion and rust inhibitor during the preparation process. Components are thoroughly dried before being coated with Superdurable TGIC polyester powder and are cured at temperatures between 375° and 400° F. Epoxy or hybrid paints are not acceptable. Finish quality conforms to ASTM Specifications: B-117 (Salt Spray Resistance Test), D-2794 (Impact Resistance Test), D-1734 (Mandrel Flexibility Test), D-2247 (Humidity Resistance Test), D-822 (Weatherability Test), D-3363 (Pencil Hardness Test), D-3359-B (Crosshatch Adhesion Test), and D-2454 (Overbake Resistance Test) D-522 (Conical Mandrel), D-523 (Gloss - 60°).
