City Administrator Johnson stated that it would add approximately $279,000 to the previous budget estimate.

Council member Shoe-Corrigan added that in the past the City has tweaked projects in order to meet budgets.

Prestwick Place – Playground Proposals Park & Recreation Director Schultz provided a summary of the staff report about the Prestwick Place playground project. A neighborhood meeting was held earlier in the year and was well attended. Staff and a review team of six people reviewed the seven proposals that were submitted by contractors. Six of the seven review team members agree that the Parkitecture proposal was the best fit. The Park and Rec Commission also felt the Parkitecture proposal was also the best based on the range of ages served and the zip line feature. Council member Demuth asked if the playground area would be mulch and how it is decided to use mulch or another material. Schultz stated yes, it would, and it is based on ADA accessibility.
