Subject:APPROVE and AUTHORIZE advertisement of Lefty Gomez Park Improvements - Concession and Picnic Areas
Project, Rodeo area.
BACKGROUND:
Plans and specifications for the project have been prepared for the Public Works Department by Stantec Architecture,
Inc., and filed with the Clerk of the Board by the Public Works Director. The construction cost estimate is
$311,000.00 and the general prevailing wage rates are on file with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors and will be
the minimum rates paid on this project.
Approved by voters in 2008, Measure WW allocated grant funds to local parks for improvements. Special Districts
staff met with the Rodeo Municipal Advisory Committee and CSA R-10 Advisory Committee and the John Swett
Unified School District to develop the proposed improvements at Lefty Gomez Park. The improvements include
installing seating in the ballfield walkway area impacted by tree roots, adding drinking fountains, installing large
group BBQs and picnic tables, providing new ground surface to improve accessibility, construction of a concession
booth that includes a restroom, announcer’s stand, kitchen and extra storage, repair of ballfield entry gate,
replacement of bleachers, installing trash cans in picnic and concession areas, and storm drain, water and sewer
improvements.
The Board found this project is a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Class 1(d) Categorical Exemption,
pursuant to Section 15301(d) of the CEQA Guideline during the March 12, 2013 board meeting.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this project is not approved, the grant funds would be diverted to another agency project and this project would not
be constructed.
