Records Request - Brook Run Skate Park

Dear Mr. Stamps,

I would like to make an Open Records Request regarding the construction of the Brook Run Skate Park. Please provide me all documents surrounding RFP 06-100022-ITB, any and all addendums, maps, surveys, as well as a complete copy of JM Wilkerson Construction Co’s bid proposal. If there are any other contractual agreements regarding sub-contractors, building construction plans, tree surveys, drainage surveys, light spillage surveys, landscape plans, plans for buffers & fencing, plans for parking or any other statements of work regarding this project, I would also like to obtain these copies as well.

I am also interested in the contract, sub-contract or work order for the tree removal in order to prepare the property for construction. Please provide all documentation as to the status of this aspect of the project as well.

If there are any fees in order to obtain all documents related to this project, my association would be willing to pay the replication costs.

Thanks in Advance,

John Heneghan, President

E-mail to County regarding documents & benches

Dear Mr. Billups & Mr. Stamps,

Thank you for the opportunity to pick up the documents (in excess of 400 pages) this afternoon regarding the demolition of the Brook Run hospital which I have now copied to my civic association webpage for anyone who might be interested in reviewing them. I am happy to read about the Site Restoration plans & the fact that a tree survey will be conducted to ensure that no excess vegetation will be removed without your express approval.

As per my other request, I hate to sound ungrateful for the few benches you have provided near the big field & front entrance of the park but I wanted to make sure you understood that a few more benches strategically placed on the playground and near the restrooms would do wonders for the hundreds of visitors this park entertains on the weekends. Otherwise the seating on the playground will still be woefully inadequate!

Immediately below are the internet links of the documents you provided me today & down below are a few of the highlights that I was interested in learning about.

Thanks again for the documents regarding the demolition of the buildings & your possible consideration of a few more benches for the playground.

I will be in contact if I have any further questions.

Sincerely,
