UNANIMOUS CONSENT AGENDA ITEM N0. [
CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF: February 13 , 1973
ITEM TITLE: Resolution - Approving appropriation of funds to repair
Loma Verde Recreation Center
INITIATED BY: Assistant City Manager
BACKGROUND
As a result of the extensive damage to the Iona Verde Recreation Center on Saturday,
February 3, 1973, I have investigated the cost of this vandalism and would like to
present the following facts for your consideration. From July 1, 1972, to the
present date we have expended $314.15 for glass, $72.00 for plywood and hardwood,
$18.90 for vinyl stripping used to recaulk the windows, $41.80 for paint to cover
the graffiti, and $67.62 to replace thermostats within the building, which is a
grant total of $514.47. Coupled with the estimate of between $1200.00 to $1500.00
to replace the 15 plate windows and door panes destroyed Saturday, our potential
cost for repair to this building is $2000.00. During the last fiscal year, Building
and Housing spent $1118.41 to repair this same facility because of various acts of
vandalism. This does not include labor.
Neither the Parks & Recreation budget nor the Building and Housing budget is capable
of continually being drained fre[n its operating accounts for this type of expense.
In desperation, I would like to make the following recomtuendations. First, since
the windows seem to be the main target, they be replaced by permanently walling then
in. Second, that the glass in the doors be replaced with the new miracle plastic
lexan, which is for all practical purposes indestructible. The cost of this repair
will be approximately $3800.00.
MY first reaction to the vandalism was anger, and my first suggestion would have
been to close the building. 'T'his would have punished not only the minority who
abuse our City facilities, but also the majority who benefit fro non the many programs
offered at this building. MY final reaction is the above recommendation, with the
assurance that we can wall the windows in aryl by using ornamental block instead of
glass, still have an attractive facility.
