This document is a Request for Commission Action from the City of DeLand's Public Works Department, dated January 6, 2025, concerning the Tra Thomas Park Improvements project. The project, developed jointly by the Public Works and Park & Recreation departments, will add 13 new parking spaces along the west side of the park and improve sidewalk, curbing, and address stormwater erosion on the east side. The project is located within the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) target area and was advertised in the Daytona Beach News-Journal and through online procurement systems, receiving five bids.

The recommended bid is from Drewry Site Development for $121,015.94, which was determined to be the lowest bid and based on extended unit prices estimated by city staff. The project will be funded through Community Development Block Grant funds, aligning with the city's strategic plan focus of "Creating the Connected Community" and addressing mobility needs. The City Commission is being asked to award the contract to Drewry Site Development for an amount not to exceed $121,015.94, with the project falling within the city's sustainability and community development objectives.
