COUNCIL COMMUNICATION Im AGENDA TITLE: Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for DeBenedetti Park Maintenance Yard Enclosure MEETING DATE: October 3,2012 PREPARED BY: PublicWorks Director RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve plans and specifications and authorize advertisement for bids for DeBenedetti Park maintenance yard enclosure. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The master plan for DeBenedetti Park includes a maintenance yard consisting of park maintenance facilities, a storm drainage pump station and a municipal well at the southwest corner of Century Boulevard and Heavenly Way. The pump station and well project have been completed by the Public Works Department. The City has received several critical comments regarding the appearance of the Public Works facilities. Requests have been received to advance the construction of the maintenance yard enclosure. This project consists of constructing a 7 -foot high masonrywall surrounding the maintenance yard and PublicWorks facilities, as called for in the original master plan. The layout of the planned enclosure is presented in Exhibit A. An objective of the project is to screen the existing pump station and well from public view. The tall mechanical trash -handling facility at the pump station will be partially screened from view, as represented in Exhibit B. The enclosure will look similar to the existing reverse frontage wall and landscaping located on the southeasterly corner of the Century Boulevard and Heavenly Way intersection. The next phase of this project, scheduled for Fall 2012, will add irrigation and landscaping improvements. This work is planned to be completed by Spring 2013. Staff recommends that City Council approve the plans and specifications and authorize advertisement for bids for the DeBenedetti Park masonrywall enclosure project. The plans and specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid opening date is November 7, 2012, and the estimated project cost is $160,000. FISCAL IMPACT: Staff anticipates maintenance costs for the masonry wall to be minimal. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding for this project will be identified at the time of contract award.
