<br /> <br /> <br /> “I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to you and your staff in assisting Herbert, Rowland & Grubic, <br />Inc. (HRG) as Bellevue Borough Engineer and by providing design/build services for the Phase 1 and 2 Bellevue <br />Borough, Bayne Park Skate Plaza project. <br />This project was initially conceived by the Borough in 2010. Funding for the Phase 1 and Phase 2 plaza <br />construction work was received over a two year period from various federal, state and local sources. Because <br />of this funding mix, a competitive bid process was required. Spohn Ranch was selected as the design/build <br />firm for both phases of plaza construction. You and your staff assisted the Borough and HRG in all phases of <br />design, construction and management of subcontractors. Your attention to detail and communication with all <br />parties involved (not to mention patience related to weather delays) allowed the Borough to realize the <br />completion of Phase 1 in August 2011 and Phase 2 in June of 2013. <br />Borough leaders, local skateboard enthusiasts and adjacent municipality representatives have provided much <br />positive feedback on your company’s work. <br />I would like to again express my appreciation for your efforts and state that I would be happy to recommend <br />Spohn Ranch for the design and construction of any new skateparks.” <br />- John Rusnak, P.E. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> “My husband and I were part of the committee that worked with our local park board to develop a skate and <br />bike park in the small City of Wyoming. Having never been part of a project like this, we were immediately <br />impressed with Spohn Ranch from the first phone call we made. We had gotten Spohn Ranch’s name from <br />another skatepark we visit frequently with our kids and from first contact they assured us that they could <br />assist with answering all of our questions, no matter how trivial, and would be able to help us through the <br />process of fundraising and working with our city officials to get the project implemented. <br />Our project was somewhat difficult in that we are a small community with a limited budget, yet we have many <br />different types of riders in our area. We needed a park that would work for skaters and bikers, young and old. <br />Regardless, the team at Spohn Ranch did an excellent job of explaining every step and made it all work. <br />We ended up with a beautiful design that met all of the needs of the kids in our community and fit well <br />within our limited budget. This was a learning experience for all involved, but Spohn Ranch made it an easy <br />process and continued to follow up with us throughout. Our park has only been open for about 6 weeks, but it <br />is a huge success story and we have Spohn Ranch to thank for that! <br />- Lois and Russell Janke, Wyoming, MN Skatepark Committee <br /> <br /> BAYNE PARK SKATEPARK – Bellevue, Pennsylvania <br /> GOODVIEW AVENUE SKATEPARK – Wyoming, Minnesota
