Report To: Mayor Carl Zehr & Members of Council
Date of Meeting: 2007-04-16
Prepared By: Larry Gordon
Date of Report: 2007-04-10
Report No: FIN 07-044
Subject: T07-030 -Rink Board System KMAC -Kinsmen Rink
RECOMMENDATION
That tender T07-030, Rink Board System KMAC -Kinsmen Rink, be awarded to Sport Systems
Unlimited Corp., Waterloo at their tendered price of $133,772.00, including G.S.T.
BACKGROUND
The rink boards in the Kinsman Rink are almost twenty years old and are due for replacement.
They are the old steel framed boards and are badly rusting and rotting out. The concrete sleeves
that hold the boards in place are no longer usable and the concrete around the sleeves has
deteriorated badly which results in the boards actually moving throughout the ice season. These
boards are taken in and out two and three times per season and staff are finding it next to
impossible to align and support these boards as straight as the user groups expect.
