BACKGROUND /REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
The Public Works Department and the CSA M-16 Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC)
have been working on a plan to develop a county-owned parcel of land at the corner of
Kilburn Street and Wellington Avenue in Clyde as a park for nearly two years. The current
improvement plans include a walking path, an ADA compliant picnic table, a shade tree
and other vegetation, a drinking fountain and a natural turf area. Automatic irrigation will
also be installed as part of this project.
The total cost of the proposed project is $175,000. The following is a summary of the
sources and uses:
Sources
$ 101,962 Proposition 12
$ 13,500 Clyde Improvement Club donation
$ 1,356 Donated masonry material
$ 17,182 CSA M-16 fund balance
$ 41,000 Park Dedication Trust Fund
$175,000 Total Sources
Uses
$ 30,000 Design Consultant
$ 15,000 Construction Management
$130,000 Construction
$1759000 Total Costs
The CAC has approved Public Works' request to access park dedication funds, and there
are sufficient funds in the Clyde area Park Dedication Trust Fund account to meet this
request. If approved, there will be a $0 balance in the Clyde area account. It is the policy
of the County to utilize park dedication funds to meet local park needs. This action is
consistent with that policy and is consistent with the Contra Costa County Parks Capital
Improvement Plan dated January 2007.
