Mendenhall Park Revitalization Project: Phase 1

Inyo County is looking for a contractor to design, build, and install a unique playground that encourages physical activity and enhances motor skills development for children ages 2-5 & 5-12 at Mendenhall Park in Big Pine, California. The playset must include: at least 2 slides, climbing and balancing features that promote coordination development, a shade structure for the playset, and ADA accesible equipment on the playset. The playground design must include the following free-standing features: 1) a “zip-track” or “zip line” system, 2) a dome climber, 3) a spinner/merry-go-round feature, and 4) a 2 bay, 4-swing swingset; three (3) new free-standing features, but a total of four (4) free-standing features. The swingset will be re-purposed from the current playground to be installed in the new playground. The dome climber is being received as a donation from a local school and must only be included for installation (Dome climber has a Use Zone of 19’ x 19’). The playground design must have the zip track and swing-set on woodchips. The remaining free-standing features and playset must be on pour in place rubber. The playground footprint must not exceed 6,600 (six thousand six hundred) square feet to ensure the playground fits with other planned additions. A drawing of the park is on the last page of this Bid Package titled Preliminary Draft Plans. The concrete borders and foundation for the playground and safety surfacing must be designed and installed with this proposal. Minimum compressive strength of 4500psi must be achieved for concrete borders and foundation.
