SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE FOR BIDS FOR LAUREL GLEN PARK
r1lXODS y1;tA_%I siv14CC
To approve plans and specifications and to authorize advertisements
for bids for construction of Laurel Glen Park as recommended by the
Parks and Recreation Commission and Community Services staff.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The preliminary cost estimate for construction of Laurel Glen Park
is $433,000. This project is included in the 1991-92 Capital
Improvement Budget. With the building industry slow, now is a good
time to advertise for bids. The bids could be significantly lower
than the preliminary cost estimates. Contracts recently awarded by
the Council for park construction have ranged from sixteen to
thirty percent lower than preliminary cost estimates.
BACKGROUND:
The Laurel Glen Park site plan was developed as a result of an
intensive public input process. The design process began on May 1,
1990 when the Parks and Recreation Commission convened the first
Neighborhood Park Task Force meeting. Subsequently, the Task Force
met on May 29, 1990 and July 9, 1990 to develop the site plan which
was approved by the Parks and Recreation Commission on August 16,
1990. This site plan will develop a three acre neighborhood park
at the corner of heritage way and Myford Road. Elements of the
design include a play area/tot lot, landscaping emphasizing the
extensive use of trees, a softscape shade area, a fitness trail, a
rest room, and a large open turf area for general play. The site
plan is attached.
To provide input on site amenities and plant materials, the Task
Force met for a fourth time on September 11, 1990. The site plan
was approved by the Planning Commission on September 24, 1990.
On October 15, 1990 the site plan was reviewed by the City Council.
At this meeting, it was reported to the City Council that the Task
Force had identified a need for three limited time parking spaces
on Heritage Way. The City Engineer determined that such a parking
scheme was possible since no bike path was planned for Heritage
Way. The City Council concurred that parking space be provided on
Heritage Way for three cars with one being designated for
handicapped. Parking would be allowed from 6:00 a.m. to dusk with
a two hour time limit. On June 3, 1991, the City Council
reaffirmed support for this parking scheme at Laurel Glen Park.
DISCUSSION:
Working drawings and bid documents for Laurel Glen Park are
complete and ready for bidding. The project timeline follows:
Council authorizes advertisement for bids September 3, 1991
Bid Opening October 22, 1991
Council awards contract November 4, 1991
Construction begins December 1991
Construction complete, maintenance period

Park turned over to the City July, 1992
The Neighborhood Task Force which assisted with developing the site
plan for the park has been advised as to the current timeline for
the park. As this project progresses, staff will continue to keep
the Council updated.
