June 8, 2000 Page 3 B. Approval to Continue Public Hearings for LIVID 94-1 (Dos Vientos Ranch) from June 8 to June 22. Sorensen recommended the continuance of the Public Hearing for LIVID 94-1 to June 22 so the two hearings could be done at the same time. It was moved by Jacobson, seconded by Holt, and carried 5-0, to continue Public Hearings for LIVID 92-1 from June 8 to June 22. C. Authorization to Award Contract to Karleskint-Crum, Inc., in the Amount of $339,773 for Construction of Kimber Park, First Phase Sorensen reported that substantial funds have been made available through a preliminary agreement with the City staff, and that the City Council will consider full funding of the park site including Phase II amenities later in June or early July. Therefore, it is recommended to reject the bids and bid the entire site with one contractor doing both the construction and the maintenance. The City made a request regarding the timing of the groundbreaking to coordinate with their official approval of the additional funds necessary for Phase II. The date of the groundbreaking will be announced to the Board at a later date. The revised recommendation to the Board is to not award the bids, and authorize staff to go out to bid again for both Phases I and II. In a question from Lange, Sorensen said that a sizable amount has been raised by private citizens thus far. District is contributing in force labor by doing the grading for the site. Replying to questions from Board, several neighbors in the Sunset area have contacted the District, and were interested in a similar procedure for their undeveloped site at Northwood. Sorensen said that a Master Plan on the Northwood Playfield will be recommended to the Board in upcoming budget considerations. It was moved by Gibson, seconded by Holt, and carried 5-0, to accept the revised staff recommendation not to accept the bid from Karleskint-Crum, Inc., and proceed to rebid the construction of Kimber Park, both Phases I & II.
