Date: May 13, 2024 Item: 18 Presenter: Josh Lemons, Parks & Golf Superintendent Section: Parks Report Title: Lurton Dog Park Parking Lot Project - Award 1.Purpose: The purpose of this item is to award the Lurton Park parking lot expansion project to Sunram Construction Inc. 2.Background: Lurton Park has has been a success since it has opened and parking has not been able to keep up with the demand. Parking has been observed to be taking place on Wayzata Blvd which can be a dangerous situation. The Park Commission has discussed the need to expand parking opportunities for several years now. Staff recently requested a design from Bolton & Menk to explore options for additional parking at Lurton Dog Park. Bolton & Menk determined that an additional 15 parking stall could be added by expanding the parking lot to the West and moving the fence line with it. 3.Scope: The parking lot expansion would add an additional 14 parking stalls and one additional ADA stall. The lot will be re-striped and new fencing around the parking lot would be installed. 4.Cost: The project was sent to two contractors for quotes. Sunram Construction, Inc. came in with a quote of $74,730.00 and Blackstone Contractors, LLC came in at $79,365.53. 5.Funding: Funding for this project will come from the Lurton Park Fund. Once the project is completed, the fund will have a balance of $36,950.28. 6.Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends awarding the contract to Sunram Construction, Inc. The parking lot expansion is important to help provide additional parking for an already heavily used park while also providing safety by removing vehicles from Wayzata Blvd. AGENDA ITEM COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED Motion to award Lurton Dog Park project to Sunram Construction, Inc.
