    In accordance with Council procurement policy and procedure, an Invitation to Tender (ITT)

     assessment.
    The tender evaluation panel completed the evaluation process and considered Revolution

RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Project Officer to the Services & Organisation Committee Meeting
dated 7 December 2021 and award Contract No. T000051 for design and construction of the new
halfpipe structure at Sunshine Beach Skate Park to Revolution Action Sports Concepts Pty Ltd for
the lump sum price of $283,271 (excl. GST).

REPORT
1.       Background
The existing half pipe structure at Sunshine Beach Skate Park measures 3m (10ft) high and 7.2m
wide. When the skatepark was upgraded in 2016, the half pipe remained at the request of the local
skating community as it is one of a kind in the region. However, the structure has seen out its design
life and maintenance requirements rapidly increasing to keep the ramp safe for public use.
With the condition of the existing structure, the inclusion of skateboarding in the Olympics and the
awarding of the 2032 Olympic Games to Brisbane, it is the perfect time for Council to replace the
current structure.
After community consultation with the newly formed Noosa Skating Association, there were two key
design elements that have been included in the specification for the new ramp. The new ramp will
be 3.7m (12ft) tall and at least 8m wide allowing users to further their vert skating skills. The new
ramp will also employ a modern skate surface consistent to those used in world class competitions
such as X-games and Dew Tour.
