These three <br />options are very different in design and price point, but all three would fit within the use zones we have available in <br />the existing container. <br /> <br />Staff is recommending four options for discussion the Commission may consider. They are as follows: <br /> Option 1 - $46,000 Boulder replacement <br /> Option 2 - $60,000 + k Fortress Multi-Climber or a different unique play feature such as the We-Go-Round <br /> Option 3 - $40,000 Rope Climber <br /> Option 4 – No replacement <br /> <br />Financial Impact <br />The financial impact could be up to $75,000 for 2024 from the PIF. <br /> <br />Mission/Policy/Goal <br />Opportunity to live, work and play <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> Playground Replacement Concept Options 1, 2, 3 <br />
