HUSTON, CITY MANAGER FROM: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/ENGINEERING DIVISION SUBJECT., AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE FOR BIDS FOR BARRIER NETTING FOR COLUMBUS TUSTIN PARR (PROJECT NO. 400030) RECOMMENDATIONS: It is recommended that the Tustin City Council, at their meeting of November 16, 1992, adopt the attached resolution approving plans and specifications and authorizing advertisement for bids for the subject project. BACKGROUND: On March 16, 1992, the City Council appropriated $25,000 from the Park Development Fund for improvements to the fences at Columbus Tustin Park. The improvements are an attempt to minimize the City's liability for damage to vehicles on Irvine Boulevard and Prospect Avenue from softballs hit over the existing six foot high perimeter fence. The plans and specifications outline the construction of a barrier netting - suspended on new wooden poles. The netting is similar to that used at golf courses. The installation of the barrier netting will decrease, but not eliminate the possibility of softballs fouled -off into the streets adjoining the softball fields. DISCUSSION• The following is the anticipated schedule for construction: Authorization to Advertise Bids ................... 11-16-92 First Legal Advertisement ......................... 11-26-92 Second Legal Advertisement 12-03-92 Open Bids ......................................... 12-17-92 Award Contract .................................... 01-04-93 Begin Construction ................................ 01-25-93 Complete Construction ............................. 02-26-93 The budgeted amount was based upon estimates utilizing used wooden poles. New wooden poles were recommended by the Engineer. The Engineer's estimate for the subject project is $27,000.00. Based upon the final bid results, additional fund appropriations may be needed at the award of the contract. This is unlikely to happen under current market conditions. Robert S.
