Bid Title: Bolton Hill Sports Complex - Playground Equipment Request for Information
Category: BOLTON HILL SPORTS COMPLEX PHASE II Status: Open Description: REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
The City of Veneta will be seeking proposals for a partial turnkey playground system to be installed within the constructed oval play area at Bolton Hill Sports Complex Phase II, with the intent of receiving creative and site responsive designs that maximize vertical play value, visual presence, and overall engagement within the available oval space.
This playground equipment installation will be done once the completion of the concrete hardscape that with demarcate the boundary of the play area is complete. In the interim, we are seeking preliminary designs and related costs. We believe the people who know the most about the function of the equipment are the companies who supply the products.
Since we have some time before publishing the Request for Proposals, we would like to share what designs you would consider for such a site, and get feedback for review by staff and our Park Board. All Park Board meetings are public, so comments will be recorded and available. It is our intent to use this information to refine our RFP to suit the needs of our citizens.
The following are the relevant sections of the RFP as they are currently, and subject to change:
BACKGROUND:
Primary Structure Intent
The City desires one primary, vertically oriented composite structure serving as the dominant feature within the oval. Proposals should emphasize height, vertical circulation, and elevated play experiences. The City is not prescribing a minimum number of slides, climbers, or play events. Proposers are encouraged to present configurations that best utilize the space and budget while achieving high overall play value.
Proposals shall:
- Provide a tower style or vertically oriented configuration
- Demonstrate strong vertical play value
- Include an enclosed elevated component if feasible
- Maximize deck height within surfacing and safety constraints
- Be fully ADA compliant
- Comply with applicable ASTM and CPSC playground safety standards
- Include certified critical fall height documentation
Site Fit and Layout
All equipment, surfacing, and required use zones must remain fully within the constructed oval play boundary shown on Sheet L100.* Required use zones shall not extend beyond the thickened concrete edge, seat wall, or ramp interface. Proposals shall include scaled layout drawings overlaying the proposed equipment and use zones onto the Sheet L100 background to demonstrate compliance with site constraints.
Additional Elements
The City prefers a cohesive primary structure rather than multiple small independent structures distributed throughout the oval. Standalone elements such as swings, spinners, or small independent structures are not the primary objective of this solicitation but may be proposed if integrated thoughtfully into the overall design. Such elements will be considered as part of the overall evaluation of play value, site fit, and budget efficiency. Proposals that rely primarily on scattered small components in lieu of a strong central structure may receive lower evaluation scores.
Age Range
The playground shall be designed for children ages two through twelve unless otherwise proposed. Any alternative age segmentation must be clearly explained and justified.
PROJECT SCOPE OF WORK:
The Contractor shall provide:
• Playground equipment
• Engineered foundation systems
• Turnkey installation on equipment (Fall protection provided by owner)
• Prevailing wage compliance
• Certified payroll
• Public works bond
• Shop drawings
• Fall height certification
• Final inspection coordination
• The project must remain consistent with the approved OPRD grant** scope and budget categories.
SITE CONSTRAINTS:
All Proposals must:
- Fit within defined play area boundary shown on L100*
- Avoid conflicts with accessible ramp and thickened concrete edge
- Avoid interference with irrigation infrastructure
- Maintain ADA slope requirements
- Avoid encroachment on seat wall and mow edge
