SUMMARY EXPLANATION
The City opened bids for the Eastside Skatepark on May 15, 2008 Grindline Skateparks, Inc.
was the low bid However, the bid came in $45,000 higher than anticipated To make up for the
shortfall, Apple Valley Kiwanis pledged an additional $20,000 toward construction. In addition,
staff made a request for $25,000 from the CDBG Public Facilities Fund
A. At the June 11, 2008 Neighborhood Development Committee meeting, Parks and
Recreation made a formal presentation and request for $25,000 from CDBG Public
II Facilities fund The Committee approved the request (see attached minutes) The
request before you today is to approve their recommendation for funding
B Pass an ordinance to increase the project budget by $100,000 It should be noted that
an appropriation is not necessary for the CDBG fund, as the grant was already
included 100% in the budget —this is a matter of obligating the available funds for this
purpose The project budget has not been adjusted since the original estimate of
$225,000 made in 2005, so the appropriation brings the total project appropriation to
the necessary $325,000
