SUBJECT: Consider Rer)ort on Start of Construction —of
Staff has been informed by representatives of R.B.D.
Corporation (formerly UWC) that they plan to schedule thF
ground breaking for Country Trail Park (formerly West Meadows
Park) for park improvements in late September or early
October. The PC - 3 Specific Plan does not require the park
to be open to the public until prior to the last dwelling
unit of the West Village. UWC also provided the other
neighborhood parks in PC - 3 prior to the actual required
date.
The final grading plans were submitted to the City Engineer's
office and will be reviewed by the end of the week of
September 19. The landscape planting plans have been
approved by the City's landscape architect.
The park improvements include all rough and fine grading,
irrigation and landscaping, off - street parking lot,
pedestrian walkways through the park, benches and picnic
tables, and two play ground areas (one for preschool aged
children and one for elementary school aged children) . No
ballfield(s) ,basketball court (s) or a restroom facility
have been included in this design. This plan was previously
reviewed and approved by the City Council.
The construction of the improvements will take approximately
6 to 8 months to complete, with the park open to the public
in approximately 10 months.
The annual maintenance cost for the park is projected to be
approximately $33,600 (landscape maintenance - $20,900;
utilities, water /electric - $7,000; and other maintenance
costs - $5,•700). The landscape maintenance costs could be
slightly higher due to the design of the park and the
maintenance of the slopes of the basin. Using these figures
as presented, this equates to an additional assessment of
approximately $3.35 per single - family residential unit.
