Council awards playground surface and retaining-wall contracts at Mort Jacobs Park
The council approved Resolution 202643 to contract with Playground Consultants LLC to replace the playground surfacing at Mort Jacobs Park and approved Resolution 202644 to negotiate a contract with BNB Tree and Landscapes LLC for an adjacent retaining wall. Council members questioned warranty and longevity; staff said the bids include warranty coverage and the project includes drainage and a retaining wall as part of the scope.

Council discussed prior issues with the existing surface and the need to ensure sub-surface drainage is addressed. A member noted that the bid included the retaining wall and surface work, and staff confirmed budget availability and warranty protections. Both measures passed by voice vote.

Next steps include negotiating final contract terms and scheduling construction to minimize park disruption.
