Title
Consideration of and action on authorization to purchase and installation services of Pickleball Courts on DPISD property (by the old San Jacinto Elementary) from T.F. Harper and Associates via TIPS Contract 21070202.
Body
Summary:
The City of Deer Park and Deer Park ISD have been working together on a joint project to turn a portion of DPISD property into a park. Property is located just south of the Deer Park HS Girls Softball stadium on the greenspace where the old San Jacinto Elementary playground once stood. Discussions continue for the development of the property as a whole, but the first suggested phase is to develop outdoor pickleball courts to address a growing public need. As such, the City has been working with T.F.Harper and Associates through a proposed design build construction delivery method in order to develop a concept and scope of work for the project.
The funds for the project were approved and allocated in the FY 23-24 Community Development Corporation Fund budget to be complete the first phase (Pickleball Courts) in the park’s development.
City staff is now looking to utilize the funds to build six pickleball courts on the property to begin establishing the park. This will be considered the first phase in the park development.
