CMINUTES OF APRIL 17, 1986 - APPROVED AS PRESENTED

JMr. McQuillan moved, seconded by Mr. Price and carried 3/0 (Mr.
Monaco not present) that the minutes of April 17, 1986, be approved as
presented.
OLD BUSINESS - NAMING OF COMMUNITY PARKS
Mr . Vanatta stated that in reference to the naming of the com-
munity parks, the Board of County Commissioners directed that North
Naples Community Park, East Naples Community Park and Immokalee
Community Park retain their names; Golden Gate Community Park will
remain the same but with a sub-caption of "Santa Barbara Boulevard" ;
and the Marco Island Community Park site is to be discussed by this
Advisory Board because there were additional names submitted that the
CBoard of County Commissioners felt had merit.
Mr . Burton said that there was a suggestion that the park be
called Mackle Park because of the Mackle family' s involvement in the
development of the Island. He added that the Mackle family had no
desire to have anything named after them when they were in control of
Deltona Corporation, but since they are not any longer , they have been
approached and feel it would be an honor to have the park named after
them. Mr . Burton indicated that this name has been suggested by a few
people, and feels it should be recommended to the Board of County
Commissioners but not until after he clarifies the name with the
family. He said that he is not sure whether they would want a par-
ticular family member ' s name as a memorial, or just Mackle for the

entire family. He added that he would suggest if it is named after a
member , that that member be deceased.

***Mr . Monaco arrived***
i
Mr . McQuillan asked whether there was a
Q policy of naming parks
after people, and Mr . Vanatta answered that to his knowledge there was
none. Mr . Tom Peek of Wilson, Miller , Barton, Soll & Peek, stated that
after Immokalee Road was named and renamed a policy was set by the
County not to name any roads after living persons.
Mr. Price moved, seconded by Mr. McQuillan and carried unanimously,
that this Board recommend to the Board of County Commissioners that
they consider the possible renaming of Marco Island Community Park to
a name to be considered later by this Board, but which name will be
0 for a deceased member of the Mackle family or just "Mackie Park" for the
family.
NEW BUSINESS
Monthly Updated Report on the community park progress
Mr . Vanatta stated that as directed by this Board at the last
meeting, the first Monthly Updated Report on the community parks has
been submitted and he asked if there were any questions or comments
since it is the first report of if the Board wants more detail? The
Board agreed that it was sufficient. Mr . Bob Furlong of Wilson,
Miller , Barton, Soll & Peek, stated that what he thought was important
were the completion dates. He said that Marco Island is out for bid
this Friday at 2 : 30 P.M. , construction to begin mid-August, completion

S PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD MAY 15, 1986
j C this time next year; East Naples, is still in the permitting stage;
construction status on Golden Gate, North Naples and Immokalee is not
much different than reported last week, except that there are delays
with the building contractor which is effectively pushing back the
other sub-contractors in the field. He added that everything is being
done to speed up the progress of the buildings . Mr . Burton asked if
1 there was a reason for the general contractor ' s delay, and Mr . Furlong
stated that there are reasons within the company. Mr . Burton asked if
there was anything that could be done, and Mr . Peek answered that the
contractor has to totally default, not show any signs of progress so
that it could be properly documented that he is not going to fulfill
his contractual obligations; he can take a longer time subject to
liquidated damages, but as long as he continues to make progress,
default cannot be called.
Mr . Peek indicated that there is a possibility that the contractor
can put enough people on the job and finish within the time limits of
his contract, but still have caused delays to the other
sub-contractors. He added that they will continue to document what is
going on so that liquidated damages can be claimed at the end of the
project. He noted that there is a meeting scheduled for Friday
morning with all the contractors to discuss all the schedules.
Review of playground and site ammenities bid
Mr . Vanatta stated that a summary sheet was submitted for the
a
Board ' s information, and that the intent of the Parks & Recreation
1

I
PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD MAY 15, 1986
' Department a year ago when it started putting this package together ,
was to bulk bid to save money. He said that based on some early
figures obtained from vendors throughout the country, this task has
been accomplished; and, by using this method, there was a $20, 000 to
$30 , 000 savings. He added that he feels that they obtained some
excellent vendors and outstanding state-of-the-art products, and good
prices.
Mr . Burton asked if the allotted budget of $204 , 000 . 00 includes the
$24 , 000 for in-house installation, and Mr . Vanatta "Yes, " that the
staff discussed this matter and decided that it could be done in-
house; the skills are there and they feel that it can be done for
$24 , 000 versus $80, 000 which was the original estimate from contrac-
® tors for installation.
Mr . McQuillan asked if this equipment was being ordered directly
from the manufacturers, and Mr . Vanatta answered "Yes, " but that in
some cases it would be through a middleman who is a representative,
because some manufacturers do not bid directly. Mr . McQuillan asked
if an effort was made to contact local distributors, and Mr . Vanatta
answered that the local people all had an opportunity to bid.
Mr . Vanatta stated that by bulking, everything will go to the
County barn, inventory will be taken and installation will be done as
the parks come close to completion.

Mr. McQuillan moved, seconded by Mr. Burton and carried unani-
mously, that the recommendation for the award of the contract as

outlined on the summary sheet be approved.
Review of equipment bids for the community parks
Mr . Smith stated the bids opened on May 2 , 1986, and there were 9
responses and 6 were low bidders. He added that the Parks &
Recreation Department is asking that Wesco-Zaun be awarded the bid for
all of the equipment. He said that they were not the low bidder;
however , ARA and Fleet Management was consulted and they recommended
Wesco-Zaun. He indicated that on many of the other items, the bidders
did not meet specifications of the bid package. He continued to say
1
that ARA services the equipment and they are qualified and experienced
in performing maintenance on these pieces of equipment. After a
discussion on the bidders and brand names, Mr . Smith stated that ARA
maintenance looks for pieces of equipment that will meet the specifi-
cations recommended in the bid package.
Mr. Burton moved, seconded by Mr. Price and carried 3/1 (Mr.
McQuillan opposed) to accept the recommendation of staff and recom-
mend for approval award of equipment bid to Wesco-Zaum.
Mr . McQuillan stated that his objection is based on the fact that
you can exclude suppliers that were low bidders for reasons other than
maintenance and make it appear as though maintenance was the reason
that it was being done.
SPECIAL PARKS & RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD MEETING TO REVIEW MARCO
ISLAND COMMUNITY PARK BIDS
Mr . Vanatta stated that the bids for the Marco Island Community
Park will be opened on May 23 , 1986 . He said that the June Parks &
i 4:)

PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD MAY 15, 1986
Recreation Advisory Board meeting is scheduled for June 19 , and since
the Board of County Commissioners ' last meeting before they recess is
June 17th, a special meeting of this Advisory Board will be necessary
to review these bids so this item can be placed on the County
Commissioners ' agenda prior to recess. He said that the Parks &
1
Recreation Department would like to expedite this bid to the Board of
County Commissioners.
Mr. McQuillan moved, seconded by Mr. Stevens and carried una-
nimously, that a special meeting be scheduled for Friday, at 9:00
A.M. , June 6, 1986, and that this Advisory Board will recess until
the return of the Board of County Commissioners.
MISCELLANEOUS
® Mr . McQuillan stated that when this Board met on March 20 , 1986 ,
there had been a discussion on the subject of fee in-lieu-of and there
seemed to be some dissatisfaction with the process at that time and he
asked if this was something that this Board might address? Mr .
Vanatta replied that the problem was with the formula on deciding the
fee. He added that the process itself is fine, but this was the first
time the formula was being tested and the formula needs to readdressed
in the Comprehensive Plan, and when that is accomplished it will come
before this Advisory Board for review.

(:) At this point the Design Team reviewed the items/facilities
which were included in the bids along with their apparent costs ,
to itemize a list of reductions which would reduce the bid
totals to within the alloted budget and provide contingency for
the construction process.
The strategy used by the Design Team to make the reductions was
to utilize the Marco Island Community Park Priority List, as
furnished by the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and
approved by the County Commission, include in the construction
budget the items of highest priority while cutting items near
the bottom of the list.
Recommended reductions/additions to each contract are calculated
below with a summary of resultant low bidders in Table 3 .
BP1 SITE PREPARATION:
1 . Eliminate outdoor Basketball/Volleyball Courts.
2 . Reduce clearing and grading associated with outdoor
Basketball/Volleyball Courts.
3 . Reduce sidewalk quantities due to elimination of outdoor
Basketball/Volleyball Courts .
4 . Utilize alternate materials for sidewalk construction

Recommendation Narrative:
The outline above describes the bidding and evaluation process.
0 It is the opinion of the Design Team that the recommended
additions and deletions are in the best interest of the Owner in
regards to cost and quality of product for the given budget.
A few notable items should be mentioned, namely:
In regards to the Priority List, it is recommended that the
outdoor Basketball/Volleyball Courts be deleted as opposed to
deleting the Shuffleboard Courts even though they are in
reverse order of priority for two primary reasons:
1 . Since basketball facilities will be made available by
construction of the Covered Multi-Use Facility, an ad-
i ditional user-group may be accommodated by furnishing the
shuffleboard facilities.
2 . It will be beneficial to "build-out" the area in close
proximity to the Recreation/Community Building and Covered
Multi-use facility in Phase 1 construction rather than
disturb established landscaping, drainage, etc. if the
Shuffleboard Courts were to be constructed in a later phase
of work . Note location on Master Plan.
