Freedom Park Restroom Upgrades
The FY 2024-2025 Fund 30 Quimby Budget allocates $500,000 towards the redesign and renovation of the restrooms and concession stand on the westside of Freedom Park. The entire structure needs to be brought into compliance with the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Architectural design services will be used to determine whether the current structure should be redesigned or replaced with a new, accessible facility.
Scope of Work
The architectural firm will redesign the current building, which currently consists of three individual stalls without ADA access, to create restrooms that comply with ADA requirements, including a baby changing station, and provide a minimum of two stalls.
Freedom Park Restroom Design- Approved 11.5.24
Option 1: Reconfigure the Existing Building
1. Redesign the restroom area for each side to include a minimum of:
a. One (1) ADA-compliant stall.
b. One (1) regular stall.
c. One (1) sink and one (1) hand dryer.
d. One (1) baby changing station.
e. One (1) urinal in the Men’s restroom.
2. The ideal preference is to keep three (3) stalls/toilets in the women’s restroom as well as two (2) urinals in the men’s restroom, however; spacing needed to have an ADA-compliant stall in each room will take priority.
3. The existing concession stand, which is attached to the current building, may need to be redesigned to ensure it meets ADA compliance.
Option 2: Demolish the Existing Building and Install a Prefabricated Structure
1. The new prefabricated restroom facility will include a minimum of:
a. One (1) ADA-compliant stall.
b. A minimum of one (1) additional stall in the women’s restroom and a minimum of one (1) additional stall and one (1) urinal in the men’s restroom.
c. One (1) baby changing station.
d. One (1) hand dryer.
2. The design must also incorporate a concession stand, storage areas, and an electrical room to meet current operational needs.
