The Town Council has directed staff to explore potential uses for the site to optimize available resources and develop future project plans.

The RFP does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations, making it open to all qualified vendors. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The project appears to be partially funded through a 2023 Small Town Economic Assistance Program (STEAP) grant, though the specific funding amount is not disclosed. Supporting documentation includes a budget worksheet, draft project plans, and the STEAP 2023 award letter. The solicitation has no designated line items, and the estimated total contract value is not specified in any of the provided documents. Delivery terms are set as Free on Board Destination, with payment terms to be specified by the vendor. While the total project budget is not revealed, the inclusion of the STEAP grant suggests there are allocated funds for the park improvement initiative.
