body
DESCRIPTION
Poinciana Community Park, located on the east side of the County, is a fully developed 28+ acre park, which consists of a softball complex, basketball courts, dog park, soccer fields, walking trail, and a cricket pitch.
Since opening the park in 2013, the area has seen drastic growth in population. This growth has created a high demand for use of the park's facilities, particularly the three soccer / multipurpose fields and cricket pitch, which was added after the park was built due to the sport's popularity in the area.
In 2024, the Board approved a CSA with Dewberry Engineers Inc. to design and permit the conversion of the three multi-purpose fields, inclusive of the cricket pitch, to artificial turf. This request was the result of the increase in field usage, which makes it difficult to maintain the proper field conditions for safe play. Converting the fields to artificial turf is an effective means to address the maintenance needs, eliminating down time for maintenance and turf recovery.
Parks and Natural Resources requested Procurement to solicit bids from qualified contractors to construct the three multi-purpose fields including the cricket pitch. Bid 25-667, Poinciana Park Artificial Turf Fields was issued, and six contractors submitted bids.
