## Summary

The Falmouth Town Council is seeking suppliers for the construction of a skatepark at Dracaena Playing Fields in Falmouth, with a total estimated budget of £500,000. This project falls under the category of construction work and recreational services, with the procurement process currently in the award stage. The tender period closed on 8th April 2019, and the intended contract period spans from 1st May 2019 to 1st June 2020. The project site, approximately 2,500 square metres, is located on an area of former landfill, which necessitates careful construction methods.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in construction and recreational service sectors. Businesses specialising in skatepark design and construction, landscaping, and public amenity projects would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging with local suppliers and subcontractors could enhance community relations and bolster project delivery for interested bidders.

## Notice

1.5. The Town Council has secured appropriate land for the development of the park and additional car parking (See Appendix 2 Site Plan / location map). The available land for the Skatepark and additional car parking is approximately 2500m2. The site intended for the Skatepark is an area of former landfill which is currently used as a sports pitch. The encapsulated landfill limits the ability to excavate, so the design and construction methods need to account for this. The site has excellent accessibility. 1.9. The Town Council currently has established a budget and allocated funds of PS212k but considers a total budget of PS825k with PS500k specifically for skatepark delivery this would be necessary to fund the further work. The remaining project will consist of Car Parking, road and disabled access improvements and enhancement to the natural environment - this will form part of the fund application(s) but likely to be delivered by other. This would include money to cover securing supporting funding, detailed design work and securing formal detailed Planning Permission as well as the required construction work to build the Skatepark. It is noted that outline Planning Permission has been granted - PA18/08393 | Proposed replacement skate park (outline with all matters reserved) | The Playing Field Dracaena Avenue Falmouth Cornwall TR11 2ES Additional information: Detailed description on tender process to be found within accompanying documents.
