RECOMMENDATIONS
BACKGROUND _
On February 14th Insurance Carrier Of The West group, the primary liability
carrier for the City, conducted a survey of all City owned facilities, including
parks and playground equipment. On May 14th ICY forwarded to the City a list of
items that they felt were either code violations or increased the City's
liability exposure because the facilities did not comply with ICY group
standards or accepted industry standards.
In that letter ICY requested a response regarding the City's intentions as to
compliance with the recommendations and staff has prepared both a schedule and a
cost analysis for those items that impacted City parks. The primary costs
associated with implementing ICY's recommendations are in the playground
equipment category where the play equipment does not meet Consumer Product
Safety Commission guidelines.
FISCAL IMPACT
Transfer $59,000 from the Contingency Account 101-4101-290 to the Park
Rehabilitation Account 125-99003227. Currently $547,000 is in the Contingency
Account.
RECOMMENDATION
The Park Rehabilitation account is fully expended or encumbered for the fiscal
year and staff is requesting that the funds necessary for compliance with ICY
recommendations be transferred from the Contingency .Account into the Park
Rehabilitation account.
