Pre-RFPParks & RecreationDetected Jun 3, 2026

The Parks Committee report outlined multiple planned improvements at Ski Bowl Park, referencing a 2023 Master Plan by LA Group and a recently revised 10-year action plan. The town is moving forward with funding, grading, and design work, including grading sand for parking with proper elevations and seeding, developing a road from Route 28N with a new parking lot, removal of old playing courts with help from ORDA, and exploring a larger dog park, additional recreational activities, and even a potential pump track for bikes. No contracts have been awarded yet; discussions are ongoing and costs for changes to the master plan are still being investigated, indicating an open planning phase for design, engineering, and construction services.This is a strong pre-RFP signal for firms in park design, civil engineering, trail and pump track construction, and site lighting or amenities who can help the town translate the LA Group master plan into phased, fundable projects with detailed scopes and budgets.

A county-handled grant for new trails in Riparius and an ADA pathway for the garden were also discussed, suggesting broader recreation investment; however, Ski Bowl Park items are still in planning with no decisions made.

Pre-RFP

The committee planned to mark up Section F of the park's 5-year plan and note obsolete items. The agenda also mentioned coordination with SWMPC on the Park Plan. This is an open planning signal for park capital and programming priorities, not a procurement yet. A seller should watch for which projects survive the plan update and when they move into funded work.

Pre-RFP

At its August 20, 2026 meeting, the board heard a request to upgrade the existing pickleball court at Crystal Lake Park or add 1 or 2 new courts. The request said the court is badly cracked and needs repair. The group said it would look for federal grants and private donations and did not expect to ask the town for funding. This is an open planning signal tied to park improvements and future funding.

Public Updates

The committee reviewed supporting documentation for the Independence Park study project. The item is a project update rather than a new procurement, but it confirms an active park-related study under the CPA program. This can matter to firms that support park planning, design, or implementation if follow-on work is still ahead.
