PROJECT CIP NO. 20066
SUMMARY
The plans and specifications for the Park Re-Camping Project CIP No. 20066 have been
prepared and the project is now ready to be bid.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 11-16 approving the plans
and specifications for the Park Re-Camping Project CIP No. 20066 and authorize the City
Clerk to advertise and receive bids.
FISCAL IMPACT
$120,000 has been budgeted and appropriated in this Fiscal Year 2010-2011 Capital
Improvement Program for this project. The entire amount is funded through the Federal
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program year 2010-2011.
DISCUSSION
The proposed project will replace the existing high pressure sodium (HPS) and metal
halide lighting fixtures with more energy efficient light emitting diode (LED) fixtures at Pine
Tree, Peppertree and Frontier parks. All three parks fall within the City's CDBG
enhancement area.
Currently, most parks in the City utilize HPS and metal halides that were considered to be
durable and efficient at the time of installation. LED lighting technology has improved and
is now available with longer life cycles, lower energy consumption, improved maintenance
characteristics, and a higher quality of light produced that improves color and visibility. In
addition, Southern California Edison (SCE) is offering an energy saving program via
rebates to customers who purchase and install pre-qualified LED light fixtures. Staff is
currently coordinating with SCE to obtain the applicable rebates (as funding permits) and
special lower electrical rates in connection with this project.
