The City of Woodstock, Illinois (the "City") is the County Seat of McHenry County, an hour northwest of Chicago on Metra rail. Home to the 1889 Woodstock Opera House and 1857 Old McHenry County Courthouse (under restoration), Woodstock is a diverse community of 25,630 residents with a strong arts and culture orientation, year-round events on the Historic Woodstock Square, and beautiful natural surroundings. Initial presentation of this concept on February 15, 2022 received strong positive response from the public and City Council. This Request for Proposal (RFP) is issued by the City, acting through Woodstock Public Works Department. The purpose of this RFP is to establish a contract with a qualified consultant for the design and installation of an Intergenerational Inclusive Playground at Emricson Park offering healthy outdoor enjoyment for all ages and all mobilities and encouraging family togetherness. This will include interconnected areas for inclusive youth play equipment, a shaded area of low-impact strength and balance exercise equipment, and a picnic area for older adults. The project's working title is "Nature's Way: A Playground of Possibilities", suggesting a creative design incorporating colors and themes of nature.
