condominium, and so noise is going to be a big factor. The concessionaire would maintain the area, you would monitor the area, and you are watching for kids with graffiti, you are kind of the peace keepers in the area. QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS FROM PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS 1. Will there be a designated area for concessions or are you looking for a more mobile setup? The City is providing a concession stand. It is 200 square feet, 10 x 20, windows on all sides, air conditioning, and there is a hose bib outside. You can set up that 10 x 20 interior space, however you want. The area is gated, it is the back area of the main Park and is like a loop, that entire area is just the Skateboard Park, it will be fenced, and the concession stand will block the entrance. 2. And so the concession area will be directly adjacent to the skate area? Yes. You will be able to see into the Skateboard Park from that concession area. The way the RFP is set up everyone will be bidding on how you are willing to compensate the City for the use of the area. It can be a flat fee, it can be a percentage of sales, that is up to you how you present your package. The City will cover all utilities and we expect that the revenue we receive from you will at the very least cover the utilities. 3. In maintaining and being vigilant in the area, is that more like a janitorial type support or is that more like security type support? It is more like security type support. Park Patrol employees are there for the balance of the Park, seven days a week from 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. They help keep the peace in the rest of the area. The Public Works Department will empty the trash, and maintain the landscaping. The concessionaire will be more like keeping it up, if you are selling refreshments and people are leaving wrappers, etc., we would hope that you would be picking it up or be vigilant in making them pick it up. 4. Is the concession stand going to be at the beginning of the Park or more towards the back? Can you see it from the main part of the Park? It is at the beginning of the Skateboard Park but you can't really see it from the Park, however, we will have signage that the concession stand is there. If you are in the north end of the Park or by the playground area, you are not really going to see it. But people will know because the kids will be walking by and once the word gets out that you are there, everybody will know. Where it is set up, you will be able to see as people approach. 5. When looking at the RFP responses, will you go strictly by compensation to the City or is it a combination of that plus other factors? It is compensation as well as experience, business history, qualifications, etc. We are looking for a long term relationship. We are looking for somebody who is going to take pride in the place, take care of it, get to know the users and have that mutual respect with this teenage population that is going to be using the facility and being good neighbors to our neighboring condominiums.
