Holt, Director <br />Joe Gibson, Director <br />GENERAL MANAGER EMERITUS <br />Date: December 17, 2015 Tex Ward <br />To: Board of Directors <br />From: Jim Friedl, General Manager <br />Subject: Contract for Design Serviices at14orthwood Neighborhood Park <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Authorize General Manager to enter into a contract with Landmark Design in the total <br />amount of $50,000 ($46,370 plus $3,630 contingency for expenses) for design services <br />for Northwood Neighborhood Park improvements, including playground, basketball and <br />volleyball courts, pathway, and landscaping improvements. <br />DISCUSSION <br />In September 2002, after a competitive Request for Proposal process, the Board <br />awarded a design services contract to Landmark Design for approximately $49,000. <br />The scope of work provided design services to transform an undeveloped property into <br />a neighborhood park, including grading, irrigation, landscaping, play area, restroom, <br />basketball court, volleyball court and pathway. <br />In November 2009, an approximate $1.1 million project to grade, irrigate, and landscape <br />the site was completed. <br />In late 2010, an approximate $350,000 project to provide picnic tables, bbqs, outdoor <br />fitness equipment, and a perimeter rubberized path was completed. <br />Over the past decade, staff has held multiple community meetings with the surrounding <br />residents, including most recently in September 2015. <br />Based on work already accomplished, field modifications during prior construction, <br />regulatory requirement changes, proposed turf conversion area, and community input, it <br />is necessary to provide additional landscape architectural, surveying, and civil services <br />for the complete build out of the site. Since they were the original service provider, it is <br />most cost effective and efficient to award a contract to Landmark Design to produce <br />construction documents for this project. <br />HILLCREST CENTER 403 WEST HILLCREST DRIVE.
