2026 Park Pavilion Purchase
History
The FY2026 Public Works Department budget includes funding for the purchase and installation of park pavilions at Evergreen View, Eagle Ridge III, Doogan, and Schussler Parks. Pavilions provide a place in the shade for residents to congregate, watch their children play, or enjoy lunch. Park pavilions are typically located in close proximity to a playground. The Village currently maintains fifty-six (56) pavilions located throughout the Parks system.
Per the “2023 Parks Assessment”, the replacements of an existing 24’ x 48’ pavilion at Evergreen View Park and a 20’ x 20’ pavilion at Eagle Ridge III Parks are scheduled for installation in 2026. Public Works currently has one (1) 20’ x 20’ pavilion on hand from the rejection of a proposed pavilion by the Recreation Advisory Board at Crystal Creek Park. The purchase of the 20’ x 20’ Doogan Park pavilion was completed in 2025, but not installed due to a delay in the start of the Doogan Park redevelopment project, while the 24’ x 48’ Schussler Park pavilion is a new structure that will be installed as a part of the Schussler Park Inclusive Playground (RFP 25-085) project.
As such, Public Works is currently in possession of two (2) 20’ x 20’ pavilions but needs to purchase two (2) 24’ x 48’ pavilions for Schussler and Evergreen View Parks.
Over the past five (5) years, park pavilions have been purchased via the GoodBuy Purchasing Cooperative, which provides a 10% discount on material costs. To avoid potential increases in pavilion costs (which have increased 35% since 2021 due to rising steel prices) and to accommodate long lead times (currently 5-6 months), the Public Works Department is requesting approval to purchase the pavilions prior to final park location approval from the RAB. This same approach has been taken for all pavilions purchased since 2021.
