About this file

This is a Parks, Recreation, and Natural Resources Guidelines and Standards catalog adopted by Sarasota County, Florida in July 2024, establishing specifications for bollards and fence systems used throughout the county's park system. The catalog details specifications for multiple fence types including 2-rail mortise fences, alligator/predator fences, aluminum fences, cattle fences, galvanized chainlink fences, hog wire fences, vinyl-coated chainlink fences, flat-top wood panel fences, and shadowbox wood fences, along with corresponding gate types such as cattle gates, chainlink drive gates, pedestrian gates, electric gates, cable gates, chicanes, kissing gates, swing gates, and square tube gates. Each fence and gate type includes specific manufacturer recommendations, material specifications, dimensional requirements, and typical applications across various park facilities. The specifications ensure all installations comply with applicable federal, state, and local codes and maintain ADA compliance as required.

The catalog establishes standardized specifications and design parameters rather than pricing terms, set-asides, or funding information. Materials specified include galvanized and vinyl-coated 9-gauge steel, pressure-treated wood, aluminum components, and schedule 20 or 40 steel posts depending on fence height and application. The document serves as the technical reference guide for the related Sarasota County invitation for bids for fence installation and repair services, which contemplates contracting with up to three contractors on an as-needed basis for an initial three-year term. All facilities and amenities referenced in the catalog must meet applicable federal, state, and local codes and be ADA compliant.
