Approve a sole source purchase order to the National Fitness Campaign, LLC for the <br />purchase of a fitness court at Centennial and Portola Parks. <br />October 19, 2021 <br />Page 2 <br />2 <br />1 <br />1 <br />5 <br />On September 23, 2021, the City of Santa Ana received approval of two $30,000 grants <br />from NFC to participate as a Model City in the 2021 National Fitness Campaign. Approval <br />of the multi-site application was based on the City of Santa Ana’s commitment to free <br />health and fitness options, development of stakeholder consensus, and the exceptional <br />and active public spaces where we will launch our Fitness Courts and the NFC program. <br />Total funding required for the purchase per Fitness Court (includes mobile app, sports <br />floor, communications and press releases, activation campaign, etc.) is $146,657.52 plus <br />installation. The $30,000 grant per site operates as a credit towards the total purchase <br />price of the Fitness Court. Installation costs may be different from site to site, as location <br />conditions vary, as well as the ability to use in-house staff for some of the installation <br />when possible. <br />As a requirement of the grant, the City must adopt a resolution to demonstrate funding <br />and support towards the projects. <br />The City is prepared to fully fund the balance needed ($116,657.52 per site) for the <br />purchase of the two courts. This resolution does not financially commit the City, but rather <br />states that the City will endeavor to secure the remaining funds needed. <br />The Fitness Court is a 32’ x 35’ outdoor bodyweight circuit training system that supports <br />28 simultaneous users on 30 separate pieces of equipment that are grouped into seven <br />stations. The 7 movement, 7-minute system provides a full-body workout to people of all <br />ability levels. The integrated system includes a sports floor to simulate the indoor gym <br />exercise and the steel bodyweight training wall provides users with many exercise <br />combinations. <br />The Fitness Court is supported by “National Campaign Resources”. This is a digital <br />ecosystem that includes a mobile app, the Campaign’s social media support team, <br />promotional materials and programming to assist public agencies in building support for <br />fit living in community spaces. <br />No other vendor, distributor, or organization sells this system. The fitness court must be <br />acquired from the NFC, LLC. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT <br />There is no environmental impact associated with this action. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />An appropriation adjustment to recognize and appropriate grant funds to the respective <br />accounts is shown below.
