BACKGROUND

The 90-acre Dallas Park was constructed in the 1970s and the park includes baseball/softball fields, equestrian facilities, fishing lakes, picnic shelters, tennis courts, and a historic village. The Board of Commissioners authorized the submission of the 2019 NC Parks and Recreation Trust Fund (PARTF) grant application in the amount of $250,000 (File # 19-121). The approved PARTF funds have been used to complete projects in the Board of Commissioners approved Dallas Park Master Plan including the purchase of splash pad equipment and a pre-engineered restroom.

Gaston County has purchased a pre-engineered restroom and splash pad equipment. The supplier of the restroom will deliver and place the building. The splash pad equipment has been purchased by Gaston County from a separate supplier. The General Contractor under this contract award is responsible for:
Project and contractor coordination, permits, sequencing of installation with Owner's separate contractors, delivery of equipment and unloading/storing at the site, connections of equipment to new and existing infrastructure, inspections, making the sites(s) pad ready to receive the equipment, utility rough-ins, final approvals, certificate of occupancy, and warranty.
