ITEM TITLE Resolution~~~: Authorizing Construction by Force Account for Vista Square
School/Park Redevelopment
SUBMITTED BY Director of Parks and Recreation
ITEM EXPLANATION
(4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES X NO )
Park Development on School Sites: With the adoption of the Parks and Recreation Element of
the General Plan, it became evident that certain areas in the community were lacking in
neighborhood park development. The deficiency was most apparent in the original residential
areas in the center city. A study of these areas prompted an agreement between the City and
the City School District to implement a pilot program for the redevelopment of neighborhood
school playgrounds into community park sites.
Mueller School was the first of these projects, financed through federal block grant funds.
The second proposed development was Vista Square School. Upon Council approval of this pro-
ject in the Capital Improvement Program, a working committee composed of City and School
District staff developed the attached plans.
The Director of Parks and Recreation has prepared a proposal for the development of this
park, indicating a breakdown of the work to be accomplished and the method of accomplishment.
He has indicated for instance, that hardscaping of the park would be accomplished by a con-
tractor, whereas the irrigation and landscaping work would be accomplished through a bid
process for the materials and the labor by force account.
Because of the many facets to the improvement of a park and the varied contractors and sub-
contractors needed, the estimates and the method of accomplishment outlined by the Director
of Parks and Recreation has been approved,and it is recommended by the City Manager in accord-
ance with the City Charter that the work be accomplished by force account.
