Phase I improvements to the park will be located on the westerly 1/2 of the park property. The designs being prepared for this area include two improved parking lots, one temporary parking lot, two tot lots two softball fields, a community building and gymnasium, an open turf area for soccer fields and other field sports, and other related improvements. To prepare for this construction, it is necessary to construct certain site improvements including rough grading, storm drain, sewer, water, streets, and final site grading improvements. DISCUSSION A. Project Design 1. Rough Grading: A rough grading plan has been prepared for the entire park site. The Phase I area is to be graded to final elevations at this time. The design provides for a fairly level area on the easterly portion of the Phase I improvements to allow for the lay out of a maximum number of soccer fields. A future phase of construction will construct a third softball field just east of the two proposed for Phase I. It is anticipated that this grading process will require moving earth from the easterly end of the park site. When completed, this undeveloped area will be left in a fairly level condition to allow for the possibility of an interim agricultural use. PAUL W. LAWRASON JR. Mayor JOHN E.

Site Plan: The site plan will provide all finish grades and appurtenant drainage devices in conjunction with the final plan. 3. Storm Drain: Storm drains will be constructed to gather all of the storm water from the site and convey it to the Arroyo Simi. 4. Sewer: One of the stipulations of acquiring the park property from Urban West Communities (UWC) was that UWC was to provide a sewer line to the property. UWC is obtaining final approvals for the construction of a sewer line under the Arroyo Simi to the northwest corner of the park property. The subject design project provides for the construction of a sewer line from that point of connection to points of connection for the Community Building and park rest room. The designs for these connections will be provided by the respective design consultants. 5. Water: An eight inch (811) water main will be constructed to provide a domestic water supply to the park. Although the primary source for irrigation water will be the on -site water wells, a secondary connection to this water main will be included in the landscape design. 6. Street: Access to the park will be provided by an access road being constructed from Tierra Rejada Road to the north west corner of the park by UWC. The subject design provides for the construction of a street from that point to serve the park. The improvement plans call for curb and gutter and 40 feet of paving. Phase I construction of this road will terminate at the temporary parking lot near the softball complex. A graded dirt road will continue easterly to allow maintenance access to the water well site. Sidewalk and handicap ramps will be provided along the south side of the access road up to the first parking lot. The landscape design will extend sidewalks from that point into the park. 7. Plans & Specification: The plans and specifications are in the final stages of preparation. A draft copy will be provided to the City Council as soon as they become available. B. PROJECT SCHEDULE It is anticipated that construction of the subject site preparation will begin in September. Arroyo Vista July 1992 Page 3 Community Park Site Improvements C. FISCAL IMPACT 1.
