ITEM TITLE: Resolution #8072: Accepting Bids, Awarding Contract and Trans-
ferring Funds for Landscaping the Chula Vista Library Site
SUBMITTED BY~ Director of Public Works/City Engineer ~}
ITEM EXPLANATION: ~/
BACKGROUND:
The library landscape plans have been developed in 3 stages.
The first stage included the irrigation of the southern part of the plot.
The $15,000 construction cost for this stage was part of the library con-
struction cost. Stage one has been completed and no further funding for
this work is required.
The second stage is for landscaping the already irrigated southern part of
the plot plus the irrigation and sodding of the northern section of the
site. Council has appropriated $93,000 for this work by Council Resolution
7701.
Stage 3 is for the installation of landscaping, sidewalks and park furniture
for the northern part of the plot. Council approved the landscape architect's
plan for this area by Resolution 7944 on November 11, 1975; however, funds
for this development were not appropriated at that time. The architect's
estimated cost for stage 3 was $35,500.
