Zayas, Special Districts, C.18 To:Board of Supervisors From:Julia R. Bueren, Public Works Director/Chief Engineer Date:June 8, 2010 Contra Costa County Subject:Approve the Parkway Estates Park Improvements; AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to advertise the project. Agency Funds (100%). BACKGROUND: The purpose of this project is to provide the local community with an enhanced recreational facility. The current recreational facility; Parkway Estates Park, is primarily composed of turf areas, landscaping, pedestrian path, and a play structure on an approximately 1,000 square foot lot. The park was built in 1998 and has gone without improvements, except for vandalism repairs, since its creation. The County plans to upgrade the park’s current facilities with negligible expansion, by improving and expanding existing landscaping and repairing the pedestrian path along the north side of the park. In addition, the County will install benches, a skateboard grind rail, and clean as well as paint the play structure. As funding becomes available the play structure and playground surfacing (rubber matting) will be replaced. In order to minimize damage to any nearby trees, any roots exposed during excavation will be cut cleanly and tree branches will be trimmed. No tree removal will be necessary. Real property transactions and utility relocations may be necessary in support of this project. At least one lane of traffic will be open at all times during construction activities. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Delay in approving the project will result in a delay of design and construction and may jeopardize funding. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: ATTACHMENTS Parkway Estates
