MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 2, 2008
TO: WILLIAM A. HUSTON, CITY MANAGER
FROM: DAVID A. WILSON, DIRECTOR, PARKS & RECREATION SERVICES
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO PURCHASE CAMINO REAL PARK
PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT (CIP NO. 2059) THROUGH THE
GENERAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
SUMMARY:
Approval of Resolution No. 08-84 will authorize the City of Tustin to purchase new
playground equipment for Camino Real Park utilizing the California Multiple Award
Schedule.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution No. 08-84, authorizing the
General Services Department of the State of California to purchase new playground
equipment for Camino Real Park on behalf of the City of Tustin.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Including installation and site work, the total estimated cost for the project is $140,000.
Approximately 70% ($98,000) of this total will be funded through a State of California
grant. The remainder will be funded with Park Development funds.
DISCUSSION:
In 2000, California voters approved Proposition 12 -the Safe Neighborhood Parks,
Clean Water, Clean Air and Coastal Protection Bond Act. This bond provided funding to
California cities through a variety of reimbursement grant programs, one of which is the
Roberti-Z'berg-Harris Block Grant Program.
Parks and Recreation Department staff has worked with State officials to secure this
funding for the Camino Real playground project. However, grant requirements stipulate
that all projects must be completed by March 31, 2009.
In order to expedite this project, staff approached four playground manufacturers that
are certified under the California Multiple Awards Schedules (CMAS) program. Each
was asked to submit a conceptual proposal featuring equipment that will maximize the
existing park footprint and provide for a large variety of playability options suitable for
children ages 2-12 years .

At their November 19, 2008 meeting, the Community Services Commission reviewed
the four proposals submitted and preferred the concept from Innovative
Playgrounds/BCI Burke Company, LLC. Their equipment was recommended by the
Commission to replace the existing play structure at Camino Real Park due to its
creative design, play value, and fit within the surrounding neighborhood.
Approval of the attached resolution allows the City to utilize the State's purchasing
r ram to obtain his layground equipment at a lower cost than the City could obtain
-nit own.
