SUBJECT: CONSIDER AN ADDITIONAL APPROPRIATION FOR IMPROVEMENTS OF THE
PEACH HILL PARK CONSTRUCTION PROJECT AND DATE FOR PARK
DEDICATION
As the City Council is aware, the Peach Hill Park Project is very near
completion. The maintenance period required by the construction
project contract is scheduled to end April 30, 1988. A park opening
ceremony is being scheduled for 10:00 A.M. on the above mentioned date.
Most concerns regarding the progress of the construction of the project
have been resolved. However, two major concerns that remain are the
drainage of the sand play area and striping of the parking lots. The
concern with the sand play area is that the current drainage flow and
drainage capacity does not meet the minimum standards. To alleviate
the concerns with the drainage of the sand play area, City staff has
had a redesign prepared of the drainage in the sand area. This
redesign involves the addition of perforated drain lines flowing into
an existing 12 inch reinforced concrete storm drain. All work to be
performed is within the sand play area and was not previously included
in the park design. The redesign was prepared by the landscape
architect and City Engineer's office at no cost to the City.
The second concern is the striping of the parking lots. This item was
not included in the original design and has not been performed by a
change order to date. As the City Council will recall, the
construction project was approved for the amount of $575,000. To date

The above list includes all but one outstanding Change Order of the
contractor for this project. This Change Order is to provide shims for
the bleacher so they may be installed at a level elevation and provide
security against theft and /or vandalism. This Change Order is not
expected to exceed $900.00. The estimated balance of the original
construction contract contingency is therefore $1,456.00.
The Honorable City Council

The concern regarding the drainage to the sand play area and striping
for the parking lots are ones which the City staff feels should be
alleviated prior to the park opening scheduled for April 30. The
construction of these projects are estimated not to exceed $6,500.00.
These estimates include both construction costs and any construction
observation costs, and may be City Manager Approved Contracts.
However, as indicated earlier, the current contingency amount for the
contract construction project is only $1,456.00. To proceed with this
project it will be necessary for the City Council to appropriate an
additional $5,000.00 for the project. If completion of work can't be
assured prior to park opening, it will be postponed and completed at a
later date.
In consideration of the above mentioned appropriation, two items should
be considered:
1. The construction contingency expended to date is under 2% of
the contract total which is relatively low for a project of
this nature.
2. The funds to be appropriated are projected to come from the
neighborhood portion of the Peach Hill area funds since the
settlement of the Warmington case.
RECOMMENDATION
1. Appropriate $5,000.00 of park improvement funds for the
neighborhood portion of Peach Hill Funds (Fund 05) for the sand
play area improvements.
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the necessary agreement for
services.
3. Set April 30, 1988 at 10:00 A.M. as date for park dedication. Any
related expenses for the park dedication ceremony will be funded
by the special departmental supplies account of Administrative
Services and City Council Departments already budgeted for such
purposes.
