SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR FUNDING - REPLACEMENT OVEN COMMUNITY CENTER/CIVIC
CENTER RENOVATION
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council appropriate $1,500 from the
Park Development Fund to purchase a replacement oven for the
Community Center kitchen.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The maximum expenditure would be $1,500 from the Park Development
Fund.
BACKGROUND:
The Clifton Miller Community Center is being renovated as part of
the extensive Civic Center renovation. In an effort to save money
the original plan was to reuse as much equipment as possible. The
stove top burners and the warming oven were designated to be
reinstalled as part of the construction contract.
The project is progressing on schedule. The Project Manager has
inspected and evaluated the kitchen equipment. The oven which is
in poor condition, would probably have to be replaced shortly after
rentals of the building began. He also found that the oven does
not meet ADA standards. It would be less expensive to replace now
because the installation is included as part of the construction
contract.
Money to fund the project could be appropriated from the Park
Development Fund. Approximately $80,000 in the Park Development
Fund is earmarked for projects in areas other than Tustin Ranch.
These In Lieu Fees must be spent to benefit the area from which the
fees were collected. Eight thousand dollars in fees has been
collected from projects in the Town Center Area, which is more than
enough revenue to cover the cost to purchase a new oven.
According to State Law, In Lieu Fees may be used "for the purpose
of developing new or rehabilitating existing park or recreation
facilities to serve the subdivision." The Community Center, while
serving the entire community, is located in this area. Using these
fees for the rehabilitation of the Center would be an appropriate
expenditure.
The Project Manager will get bids to assure that the City is
getting the best price. The Community Center should be completed
in August and available for rentals October 15.
