He stated that it is critical to maintain a regular schedule of Phase 2 activities to prevent a reduction of playable fields or adversely affecting CVD (Conejo Valley Days) activities; the phasing plan was developed around an annual "window of opportunity" beginning when Conejo Valley Days leaves the site (mid-May) and before AYSO occupies it (August); and to facilitate the schedule, a bid opening and recommendation to the Board must occur in May. In response to Board inquiries, Pluth explained that ideally, Phase 2 would also include additional utility lines (water, sewer) for future restrooms and drinking fountains, a blending of funding sources will be utilized from the fiscal 2004-05 budget; staff would not propose to begin Phase 2 construction without reasonable assurance that the three new Phase 1 fields would be useable by AYSO, thus respecting the District's commitment of no net loss of fields; staff will structure the bid documents with a range of additive and deductive alternatives; it is anticipated that Phase 2 construction would be completed before the Conejo Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) begins any construction efforts; and staff is working to provide a temporary through access for trail use, but the perimeter interior loop will not be available until completion of grading.
