| TO: | City of New Port Richey City Council | | FROM: | Kevin Trapp, Assistant Parks and Recreation Director | | DATE: | 2/18/2025 | | RE: | Recreation and Aquatic Center Waterslide Restoration Project |
REQUEST:
The action requested of City Council is to review and consider the approval of the attached proposal from Rain Drop Products, LLC, in the amount not to exceed $77,249.05. This amount includes an owner's contingence of $10,000. The proposal contains pricing in accordance with the current Sourcewell Contract #-010521-RDP. This piggyback process is allowed under the current City purchasing guidelines.
DISCUSSION:
The City's waterslide located at the Recreation and Aquatic Center is due for a restoration project. The interior surface has become course over time and the exterior surface has faded. The waterslide is inspected by a third party annually which is required by the state in order to get an operating permit each year. The inspection report has noted that the slide is required to be resurfaced in order to be able to operate this year. The contractor is aware of the expedited timeline and has committed to getting the project completed in an expedited timeline. The restoration project includes resurfacing the interior of the waterslide, the painting of the exterior of waterslide, inspect all slide hardware and replace slide hardware as needed. The contingency amount has been added to cover potential additional costs due to the condition of some of the yoke plates which show signs of rusting, and some may need to be replaced.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the attached proposal is recommended.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:
This project is included in the City’s 2024-2025 Capital Improvement Program with funding identified as Penny for Pasco Tax Dollars. | | | |
