From the meeting
The line item is Ford Park Playground Improvements in the Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund. The proposed plan schedules $300,000 for design in 2028 and $2,200,000 for construction in 2029 to fully renovate Vail's oldest play area. The narrative says the 35-year-old wood structures still have underlying safety deficiencies and the work is intended to meet current guidelines and Americans with Disabilities Act requirements.
The budget package noted the project had been shifted one year later than the prior plan.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
