Wausau Tile manufactures <br />site furnishings that are consistent with the site design and style. These site furnishings <br />are catalog items rather than the custom products specified by the architect. <br /> <br />ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: <br /> <br />The original design provided for concrete site furnishings for their aesthetics as well as <br />their durability. The City researched the concrete furnishing products available and <br />recommends this product from Wausau Tile which uses recycled glass to give the <br />concrete the 'high end' look that is consistent with the City's image. The use of recycled <br />glass makes this product a "green", environmentally freindly product. As such, Wausau <br />Tile is the sole source for this style of site furnishings as described in the attached letter. <br /> <br />FUNDING SOURCE: <br /> <br />Funding for this item is available In the Capital Projects Budget, account number <br />35.600.5663, Heritage Park. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />.
